Picture
Giving Tuesday is a global movement for giving and volunteering, taking place each year after Black Friday. The “Opening day of the giving season,” it’s a time when charities, companies and individuals join together and rally for favourite causes. In the same way that retailers take part in Black Friday, the giving community comes together for GivingTuesday.

​GivingTuesday harnesses the potential of social media and the generosity of people around the world to bring about real change in their communities. It also brings together the collective power of a unique blend of partners - nonprofits, civic organizations, businesses and corporations, as well as families and individuals - to encourage and amplify small acts of kindness. Across Canada and around the world, GivingTuesday unites communities by sharing our capacity to care for and empower one another.
ON GIVING TUESDAY, MAKE A DONATION TO THE HONOUR CHOIRS BURSARY FUND

An expression of one of Choir Alberta's core values — inclusivity — the Honour Choirs Bursary Fund provides financial support to talented young singers eager to 
participate in the Alberta Youth Choir or Alberta Children's Choir program. Bursaries are available for a maximum value of the total registration fee — $295 for AYC and $195 for ACC.

The Bursary Fund is supported in large part by donations from individuals and companies with the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to develop their musical gifts. For Giving Tuesday 2017, all donations will be directed toward the Bursary Fund.

Help keep Alberta singing!

More than 400,000 Albertans sing in choirs. They sing for a long list of reasons, including the opportunity to build communities, meet new friends, improve one's overall health, develop new skills, and partake in an artistic and expressive endeavour. A variety of choirs welcome choristers at all levels, of all ages, and in all areas of the province; these include community-based children's choirs, non-auditioned adult choirs, church choirs, neurodiverse choirs, vocal jazz ensembles, and symphonic choirs. The role of Choir Alberta is to support choral music in all its forms across the province.

Choir Alberta offers that support through a proven and innovative roster of programs, projects, and services. These include professional development opportunities for teachers and conductors, workshops for choristers, regional choral festivals, the provincial honour choirs, fundraising opportunities for members, concerts featuring world-renowned artists, and the choral lending library of 200,000 octavos. Every year, thousands of singing Albertans directly benefit from the offerings of Choir Alberta.

Donations and sponsorships are vital to Choir Alberta's financial stability, and we invite you to consider investing in the organization. There are a number of ways contribute:

  • By making a one-time donation which can be directed to an area of your choosing
  • By donating to the Honour Choirs Bursary Fund to support Alberta Youth Choir and Alberta Children's Choir choristers
  • By making a contribution to the Adopt A Chorister program
  • By sponsoring a Choralfest pod

In recognition of Choir Alberta's 50th Anniversary in 2022, we are currently holding a special fundraiser called Ensemble 50. Through Ensemble 50, donors contribute $50 per month for 50 months (or they may also make one-time or annual gifts).
