Overview

Mission

As educators and artists, we are committed to nurturing the next generation of male chorus singers. We actively engage in community outreach, conducting choral clinics and workshops that empower young talents, especially those in economically disadvantaged educational environments. Our mission is to inspire, educate, and uplift through the transformative power of music. We are better when we sing together.

What it reported doing in 2024

Brothers in song ran a Choir Camp for local students to give them experience working with different instructors in a setting similar to professional choirs. The instructors donated their time.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
