Darwin Chorale needs your Donation!
All donations are appreciated. Contributions over $2.00 are tax deductable.
Why do we need the support?
The Chorale is a not-for-profit organisation which seeks support through grant funding, sponsorship and fundraising events. However, in recent years this has become an increasingly challenging task. Production costs have increased and we require assistance to keep the budget balanced.
The Chorale has no paid employees and is entirely run by volunteers. We would love to be able to employ someone to assist with the administration of the Chorale. You can help us achieve this goal.
Where does the money go?
- Rehearsal and performance venue hire
- Purchase / hire of music scores
- Sound and lighting equipment rental
- Technician fees
- Honoranium payments to the Music Director, Rehearsal pianist
- Musician fees when applicable
- Costume cost (cabarets, musicals etc)
- Programs, posters design and printing
- Advertising - news articles, television etc
What about our members?
Our members are community members from all walks of life who pay membership and rehearsal fees to perform. They work incredibly hard to develop their skills to performance standard and achieve the thrill of performing in front of an enthusiastic audience.
