Overview

Mission

Celebrating all sexual orientations and gender identities, The Queer Chorus of San Francisco provides an open and artistic environment for singers committed to musical excellence. Our performances entertain, educate, and inspire audiences with the spirit of inclusion and harmony. Reflecting the diversity of our community, The Queer Chorus entertains and inspires through music.

What it reported doing in 2024

Performed at various free community events (tree lightings, street fairs, etc.) to reach out and educate persons not normally attracted to our concerts.

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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
