YSC offers one of the best music education and performance programs in Calgary. We are grateful that you and/or your family were a part of this great organization and hope that you have many fond memories, made life long friends and benefited from the education and experience you received.  YSC provides people of all ages an appreciation for music, an outlet for their creativity, and a place to learn important life skills such as a commitment to excellence, confidence, leadership development, team work and dedication.
As you know, our tuition fees and performance revenues cover less than half of the true cost of providing our program and ensuring it is accessible. At the same time, there is an ever-increasing demand to expand our community outreach including bursaries and public performances. Fundraising comprises 53% of our revenue, so we rely on the generosity of enthusiasts like you to ensure YSC maintains excellent programs and is within reach for everyone in our community.
I invite you now to make a donation to Youth Singers. Your gift will provide essential resources and have an immediate impact on our ability to be a leading performing arts organization. You will touch countless lives: from the dedicated team behind the scenes, to our performers and their families, to the thousands of children and young at heart who enjoy our performances in their schools, senior’s homes and many other public venues or events every year.
In making your gift, you may wish to consider an affordable and convenient option and join our Viva La Musica monthly givingprogram. As little as $10 a month will provide a reliable, vital source of support for our important work in the Studios of the Performing Arts Youth Centre as well as throughout our community. Youth Singers is committed to remain a performing arts leader, to stay at the cutting edge of music and performance education and experience as well as to reach as many people as possible in our community. I thank you in advance for your generosity in making this possible with your important gift and participation.
Sincerely,
Josie Wilson Emmett
Chair Alumni Development Committee of the Board
