Support TriangleSings!
Like most not-for-profit services, this website looks to organizations, individuals, foundations and businesses for financial support . . . enabling TriangleSings! to provide information-sharing free of charge to the community. Although run pro bono, the website has operating and upgrade expenses. Those who directly benefit — choruses, opera companies, music professionals, singers — are encouraged to help pay for these.
You may support the website (and its youth initiatives) by grants and donations, and through underwriting or sponsorship of web content. Details are below.
Note: Groups contributing $40 or more, as donors or Calendar sponsors, receive special considerations: auditions and calls linked in the Choral Notes newsletter; publicity in CN for non-singing fundraisers; use of the discount advance-purchase option for events; complimentary "Help Wanted" ads in Resources and CN.
DONATIONS AND GRANTS
Tax-deductible donations may be made via the Youth Pro Musica Fund of Triangle Community Foundation. Checks should be payable to Triangle Community Foundation, with "Youth Pro Musica/TS" in the memo line, and sent to: Lori O'Keefe, Director of Philanthropic Services, Triangle Community Foundation, 324 Blackwell Street, Suite 1220, Durham, NC 27701. (Larger grants generally pass through our fiscal sponsor, Classical Voice of North Carolina, Inc.; please contact us for instructions.) All donors receive written acknowledgment of their tax-exempt gifts.
If tax considerations aren't relevant, you may simply make a check payable to TriangleSings! and mail to: Carol T. Robbins, 705 Fearrington Post, Pittsboro, NC 27312.
Or, you can donate through PayPal with a click:
UNDERWRITING/SPONSORSHIP
There are two options for those interested in supporting the website and calling attention to their choral-related endeavors.
Calendar Sponsorship is for any group with a listing on the Events Calendar or the Auditions & Calls Calendar. The organization and upcoming activity are featured and linked in a Calendar "banner" and similarly highlighted in the month's Choral Notes newsletter and in larger type on the TriangleSings! homepage.
Resources Underwriting is for professionals, businesses and organizations offering services and goods of interest to singers and ensembles. These sponsors have ads on the Resources page and receive linked mention(s) in Choral Notes; they may choose to also have their logos appear on the website's homepage.
