Help LRMC Give Voice
to the Human Spirit in Us All!
In celebration of its forthcoming 35th Anniversary Season (2012-13), Los Robles Master Chorale is launching a critical fundraising campaign to ensure its future as a vital community arts organization.
In order to continue to present powerful choral works - from Mozart to Mahler, from Haydn to Lauridsen - and to pursue its mission of engaging audiences and educating young people about the essential art of choral music, LRMC has set a crucial funding goal of $20,000.
Please take a few minutes to watch LRMC's new fundraising campaign video.
Your financial support can be designated to help any of LRMC's many programs: concerts, educational programs, music purchases, young composers competition…you may choose how you would like to see your donation spent. Any gift, from $5 to $5000, will be rewarded special recognition.
LRMC's 35th Anniversary Season Fundraising Campaign is a featured project on kickstarter.com, and donations can be made there, or directly through this website.
In the words of Artistic Director Lesley Leighton, "No other instrument on earth has the depth and power of the human voice.... Los Robles Master Chorale can only survive through the generosity of people who want to be part of our growing legacy; people who care about community and culture - people like you."
Thank you in advance for your generous and timely support of Los Robles Master Chorale.
