Overview

Mission

OUR MISSION is to provide Central Texas singers with the experience of musical artistry and excellence through choral singing and group performance. Our chorus is dedicated to reflecting Austins diversity and providing community service through music.

What it reported doing in 2024

Community Performances and Engagement. The chorus offered free public performances including two concerts at the Austin Central Library and one at the Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk reaching more than 1,000 community members. Additional activities included participation in the American Artists Projects Use Your Voice Use Your Vote concert and a donation-based community song workshop at the Brewtorium. These programs advanced the chorus goal of increasing community engagement and making live choral music accessible to diverse audiences in Austin.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 67% 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

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
