AFD Report & Thank you

On behalf of the entire Virginia Women’s Chorus, I would like to thank everyone who donated to our Annual Fund Drive. Because of your generosity, we were able pull of the most successful AFD ever, surpassing our goal of raising $12,000! Your donations will allow the Chorus to pay its regular operating costs and will fund exciting projects like our annual Candlelight Concert, our upcoming Spring Tour of the Northeast, and the commission of an original piece by renowned composer Ola Gjeilo.

If you have not yet donated and still wish to do so, you can donate online here.
