Support Rise Up Chorus
How can you help us to support our mission?
Our mission calls people together -- we build Community using music to bring us together. Being a tuition-free chorus organization, it's no secret that it takes a significant amount of money to run an organization as special as Rise Up Chorus. We rely on the generosity of so many individuals, families, grants, foundations, and businesses to keep our choral programs tuition and membership dues free. Any help that you can contribute to Rise Up Chorus would be greatly appreciated. Rise Up Chorus Inc. is a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and all contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
