FUNDRAISING FOR CHOIRS

The tour is booked. The festival fees are due.
Sing for your supper, smarter.

Choirs carry real costs — tour travel, festival registration, accompanists, literature — on rosters that can't move product-sale volume. A personal-ask campaign fits how choirs already work: together.

WHY IT WORKS

A choir is a built-in fundraising network.

Every singer has family who'd rather give $50 toward the New York trip than buy another candle. The blitz process turns that instinct into a campaign: each singer lists 25 contacts, sends a personal heads-up, and makes the ask on one energetic kickoff night — with the platform handling reminders, receipts, and tracking.

Fund the season or the trip

Set the goal around what donors actually care about — the spring tour, festival entries, commissioning a piece — and show live progress toward it on every singer's page.

Every voice part, every grade

Personal pages work for the varsity chamber choir and the sixth-grade treble choir alike — and Express Mode covers singers under 13 with no student accounts at all.

Directors conduct, the platform administrates

Automated SMS and email follow-ups, instant receipts, live dashboards, Excel exports. You bring the kickoff energy; the software does the chasing.

PROVEN IN THE FIELD

The process is proven — in your hallway

The same blitz choirs run is the one the band down the hall documented.

THE PUBLISHED RECORD

$3,352,543 documented

Fine arts programs running this exact process have documented $3,352,543 in published case studies — with student participation between 81% and 99%, season after season.

SMALL-ROSTER PROOF

Depth beats headcount

A 38-member team raised $126,965 over nine seasons, and a 70-student program averages $25K a year. Chamber-choir-sized groups win on personal asks, not volume.

Part of a bigger department? A Campaign Hub puts every fine arts program on one page — each as its own branded fund, with per-fund reporting and one payout.

BEYOND THE CAMPAIGN

Two more streams, all year long.

Every campaign also includes a corporate sponsor page for local businesses and a monthly giving club for your most loyal supporters — steady money that keeps coming between campaigns, with students earning incentive credit for both.

Common questions

Our choir has never done online fundraising. Where do we start?

The Playbook walks every role through it: you set the goal and dates, singers build contact lists, parents send a heads-up, and one kickoff night launches the campaign. Five weeks, start to finish.

Can we run one campaign for multiple choirs?

Yes — groupings let you track varsity, JV, and middle school choirs separately inside one campaign, with per-group reporting. A whole music department can also run a Campaign Hub with each ensemble as its own branded fund.

What about our singers under 13?

Express Mode runs the fundraiser with no student accounts — COPPA-safe, parent-driven, fully tracked.
