Overview
Mission
We are a Long Island based intergenerational group of singers that fosters learning and excellence in performing a diverse repertoire of choral music. Founded in 1950, The Babylon Chorale began as an integral part of the Babylon Village community, and, with the infectious love of choral music, soon drew members from all parts of Long Island. While the size of its membership has varied, with membership reaching a full hundred voices in the 1980s, the Chorale has continued to provide an opportunity for people who love choral music to share their gift of singing with the communities of the south shore and beyond. Its appeal to singers of diverse ages and backgrounds is reflected in the voices of its almost 90 members today. H. Dudley Mairs, then head of the Music Department of the Babylon Public Schools, was the Chorale’s founding conductor.

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 97% 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. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
