Help Victoria raise money

For participating in 2020 Mississauga Marathon

My Story…

For me, being in a choir is essential - having moved country twice, it's an amazing way to find your community and settle into a new country. But more than that, music is so important in our lives. Being able to bring that music to the wider community is an amazing experience. I feel privileged to be able to sing with the Grand Philharmonic Choir - the repertoire we perform is rewarding in a number of ways for both us as performers and for the audiences. It's also fun getting to know the local musicians who support us, and to meet with some of the contemporary composers whose music we have performed. To be able to continue to grow and develop as a choir, and to perform the variety and quality of performance that we do, we need to raise funds each year - and this run is one way to do this. I would be delighted to be sponsored by you - even just $5 will help me towards my goal. Thanks! :-)

Description

On May 2, 2020, the Grand Philharmonic Choir will be

participating in the Scotiabank Mississauga Marathon once again. The Scotiabank Charity Challenge fundraising event was very successful and raised a little over $9,000 for our choir last year. This year we are starting earlier and stronger than ever and we hope to do even better!

It is a fun way for us  to fundraise. It gives all levels of our organisation, from the Children and Youth Choirs to the Adult and Chamber Choirs, a chance to work together at keeping our learning programs going , as well as our performances and our community events. 

Please consider a donation and help us continue our 98 years tradition of choral excellence!
