With Your Help, We Can Sparkle -
Become a Jewel in Our Crown
Our individual donors, usually comprised of delighted audience members, are tremendous, enthusiastic supporters of the NJGMC. In addition to financial supporters, they are our advocates, cheerleaders and walking billboards who help spread the word about our musical excellence. They are truly the "Jewels in Our Crown" and our Jewel program allows us to give something back to those who have donated so generously and consistently to us. See below to find out more about the benefits of our Jewel program.

Donations may be allocated to one of the following funds:
NJGMC Operating Fund - The NJGMC Fund is essential to the Chorus. It helps us to cover expenses for music, rehearsal space, concert space, administrative costs, and to pay the trained professionals who ensure that we perform entertaining, flawless concerts that keep our audiences coming back year after year.
​
Richard Alagona Memorial Fund - This is a scholarship fund that helps to cover dues payments and potential travel expenses of our members who would not otherwise be able to afford those costs so that they are able to participate as members of the NJGMC.* Click here to learn more about Richard and is impact on the chorus.

​The New Jersey Gay Men's Chorus relies on the generous support of our donors and sponsors. Without you, the NJGMC would not be able to provide and maintain the quality of entertainment for which we have come to be known. Your financial support allows us to realize our vision of being the premier men's chorus in New Jersey, expanding our presence throughout the Garden State and transforming hearts and minds so that we can be part of creating a world that celebrates its LGBTQ citizens.
