Overview

Mission

Her Voice Productions is a diverse community that sings, performs, and affirms the voices of women and girls.

What it reported doing in 2025

Her Voice Productions is a diverse community that sings, performs, and affirms the voices of women and girls. Our organization has two primary programs: the Twin Cities Women's Choir, and ENCORE! The Twin Cities Women's Choir (TCWC) has approximately 140 singers that rehearse weekly August-May, and performs two major concerts per season. ENCORE! is a small, auditioned group, has approximately 24 singers that rehearse weekly August-May, and performs in the two major TCWC concerts. We make our choirs financially accessible by providing a free-to-participate service to the TCWC singers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and assets have declined or grown slowly.
