FUNDING AND DONOR INFORMATION

Catskill Choral Society concerts are made possible in part with public funds from the Decentralization Program of the New York State Council on the Arts, the Dewar Foundation, Future for Oneonta Foundation, A. Lindsay & Olive B. O’Connor Foundation, local businesses and individuals. We are proud to be a member of the Otsego Arts Alliance.

The Catskill Choral Society Performance Fund

The Performance Fund is an endowment whose income is designated to pay for the costs of staging concerts. Fund income can be used to buy music for the singers and the orchestra, pay the fees of soloists and orchestra members, print programs and tickets, and all the things that make a concert possible.

The Performance Fund was established in autumn of 1999 by Ruth and Dick Burnett through a generous founding gift. Many people have joined this effort to build a secure financial base for the CCS program, allowing advance planning and the freedom to think more about the music and less about the money.

You can join this effort to ensure that choral music has a secure future in our area. Contributions can be sent to The Catskill Choral Society, P.O. Box 135, Oneonta, NY 13820. (If you would like designate your contribution to a specific category such as the performance fund, simply indicate the category on your check.)
