As you probably know, I am a proud member of the South Coast Chorale, Long Beach & Orange County’s only mixed-voice LGBT chorus. Performing with the chorale is my favorite artistic outlet and also how I give back to the community and promote inclusion and equality for everyone. SCC is going through a difficult time financially and we need the community’s help in order to continue to spread our musical messages. To help offset the substantial (and growing) costs of producing our season concerts, each of the singers are seeking sponsors through our Sponsor a Singer program. This new program helps us connect with chorale fans and let’s you take part in my personal musical journey.
I am asking if you would consider sponsoring my participation in this amazing group by making a donation on my online profile page. Even a few dollars goes a long way to help ensure that the South Coast Chorale can continue to be an artistic outlet for me, and a beacon of hope for our community. You’ll be directly funding the arts, affecting change in the Long Beach community and helping me do what I love. I have been part of the South Coast Chorale for 13 years and I can’t imagine not being able to make beautiful music and continuing to have a positive effect on the community.
The chorale needs to raise at least $10,000 by December 31st in order to continue the rest of this season and beyond. My personal goal toward that amount is 1,000.00 and I really hope you will consider helping me reach my goal. All donations are fully tax-deductible and can be made online, by sending a check to the chorale or by giving your donation directly to me.
If you are unable to support financially, I would love to see you at our next concert coming up on Saturday, December 17th at 5:00pm. It is called “Peace on Earth” and will focus on peace through holiday music from around the world. Also if you have a business you would like to advertise in our program we he reasonably priced ad space available. You can read more about the chorale and all of our upcoming events on our website at sccsingers.com
Thank you for supporting me,
