Overview
Mission
To foster a community of non-professional choral singers in downtown Manhattan; to enable the study and public performance of a broad range of sacred and secular choral music; and thereby to promote the education, understanding and appreciation in the larger downtown Manhattan and New York community of the cultural, ethnic, and linguistic diversity of the choral music tradition.
What it reported doing in 2024
The organization programmed, rehearsed, and presented two public choral concerts, one in December 2024, and one in April 2025. Each concert was attended by roughly 300 people.
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. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
