An Unending Hymn of Praise: The Endowment Fund of the New York Catholic Chorale

The Endowment Fund of the New York Catholic Chorale was established in 2003 to make it possible to continue our mission well into the 21st century and beyond. Continuing the living tradition of the sacred music of the Catholic Church is at the core of our mission. We are working to build a significant endowment for long-term financial stability that will preserve this patrimony. If possible, we also hope to provide support for new initiatives in the future.

Your contribution of appreciated securities or closely held stocks can eliminate a portion of your tax liability on capital gains and provide a charitable deduction based on the current fair market value of the gift you are making.
