Donating to the VWMC
The mission of the Vancouver Welsh Men's Choir is to share the joy of singing with each other and our audiences in a spirit of fellowship, charity and artistic growth. In order to fulfill that mission, the choir performs 15 to 18 concerts per year in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island and elsewhere in the province. At least 5% of the tickets to concerts produced by the VWMC are distributed free by social service agencies, care facilities and other organizations so that those otherwise unable to afford a ticket can enjoy one of our shows. Two or three concerts a year are benefits performed on behalf of other organizations to help raise funds for other worthy causes. These include Variety Clubs of BC, the Canadian Red Cross, Operation Eyesight, Lions Gate Hospital, the Burnaby Arts Centre, the Fraser Valley University Fund, the Ladner Boys and Girls Club, the Canadian Orthopedic Society, Tsunami Relief, and there are many more.
The Choir's Donor Recognition Program provides public acknowledgment of contributions to the choir from individuals and corporations in our printed concert program, as well as offering special benefits to donors and sponsors. Donor requests regarding anonymous donations will, of course, be respected.
