NYC Gay Men’s Chorus Membership Fundraising Drive 2018

Welcome to the NYCGMC 2018 Membership Fundraising Drive! The New York City Gay Men's Chorus is a world-class, world-renowned institution and a pioneering voice for the LGBTQ community. Our mission--to build bridges through song--is carried out via our annual concert series, community outreach, and our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equality. As the Chorus begins its 40th season, we need your help to continue bringing the joy of our music and the passion of our community outreach to NYC and beyond!

Our 2017/18 season's highlights included our performances with Angel City Chorale in Queer Genius: Bowie and Beyond and at AIDS Walk NY, and our fabulous and inspiring trip to Mexico to sing with our friends, Coro Gay Ciudad de Mexico and Coro Gay Puerto Vallarta, as well as our sold-out Holiday Slay and Big Gay Sing X concerts at NYU's Skirball Center.

Our 2018/19 season is well underway with rehearsals for our beautiful holiday show, Comfort and Joy (December 14-16, 2018), and plans for Big Gay Sing XI: Bootylicious in March 2019. We will cap off our season next June by commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising with a joint concert with Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles at Carnegie Hall, during World Pride 2019 in NYC. For more information about us, and to purchase tickets to our upcoming concert season, please visit www.nycgmc.org.

As a non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of friends like you. Please help us keep our song alive!

This is my third year with the New York City Gay Men’s Chorus! Words cannot express the impact this group has made on my life. I used to go to work and come home. Now I have made life long friendships and I am singing and dancing again! I have had the great opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall, on Broadway stages and on live TV! I have also been able to sing for school children and showing them positive role models of who gay men really are instead of the stereotypes that are in movies, TV, and handed down by other ignorant family members and friends. We are able to FIGHT against ignorance and hated by singing music and by starting the conversation! But we can only do these great things with your help! Please consider donating as little as $5 or $10, $20 or more! If I had 20 friends donate $10 each I would reach my goal! In times like these it’s not about how much you give, it’s about giving at all. So if you can only afford to give $10, that will be greatly appreciated. And all the $10 donations will add up quickly. Thank you for your support always. I feel blessed and I’m excited to be able to pay that forward and make room for other lucky men to join this amazing, life changing chorus! ❤️ ? ?
