Thank you for your generosity!
Your gift gives older adults the opportunity to enhance their well-being with the joy of music. Because of you, nobody is ever turned away from our fee-based programs because of financial circumstances. Your financial giving supports our Good Memories Choir, where people with early-stage memory loss sing together with their care partners in a unique community of joy and support. Your donation gives hundreds of older adults access every week to state-of-the-art expertise in vocal technique, developed by professionals who specialize in the physiology of the aging voice.
You can trust us to manage your gift. Sounds Good Choir has received the Gold Seal of Transparency from Candid’s Guidestar, the information service specializing in reporting the most comprehensive data and insights about US nonprofits.
All contributions to our organization are tax-deductible to the maximum extent allowed by law. Consult with your tax advisor if you have questions.
