What The Jackson Michigan Chorale does
Mission
The creation of the chorale filled a long standing need for a community chorus in 1955, but has gone many steps further since that time. Now an independent non-profit organization, the chorale performs works of ever- increasing difficulty, providing an opportunity for talented singers in jackson to use their voices to promote and present high quality choral music to the community. The chorale has expanded its mission to promote vocal music in the jackson michigan area. To meet their mission, the chorale has established The Jackson Michigan Chorale childrens choir. In addition, the chorale provides scholarships to summer music camp for local vocal music students.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Program
The chorale provided opportunities for some 70 different singers and 20 different instrumentalists to learn, develop, and grow musically through the preparation and performance of 4 separate concerts attracting over 1,000 attendees. The chorale also provided a limited number of scholarships for music students to attend summer music camps.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $79k to $105k (+32%).
How it's funded, over time
