How to Give

The Larimer Choral Society is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization based in Fort Collins, Colorado. Your support provides a significant portion of our operating budget and ensures that we continue to bring high-quality choral music to the community. Additional funding comes from our annual fundraising campaign, corporate donations, ticket sales, program advertising, special events, and foundation grants.

Committed singers, united for a cause, have the power to make a difference in our communities. We are a community-based, volunteer-driven choir that embraces a wide range of avocational singers. Through our concerts, events, and outreach activities, we demonstrate that singing is a lifelong endeavor that enriches both singers and audiences alike.
