We are a non-profit and non-denominational organisation fostering the love of music in our community.
> Sponsors

Our organisation sincerely appreciates the generosity and support offered by our supporters and partner organisations.

Currently more than 98% of our expenses are funded by membership fees, fundraising activities, and performance fees.

International tours currently require full payment by each participant. This is partially offset through the distribution of a % of fundraising.

CHIME is currently developing a program to encourage an increased level of spnsorship.

Sponsorship is essential for the following key reasons:

  • Support the aims and objectives of the Choral Institute in the promotion of youthful singing within our community;
  • Assist with the purchase of prohibitively expensive music;
  • Assist students to participate in the frequent overseas tours sponsired by CHIME; and
  • Assist participants defray the participation costs associated with touring.
