Support The Reston Chorale

The Reston Chorale depends on our many generous supporters to bring choral music of the highest quality to our audiences. Ticket sales, grants, dues, and fundraisers only go so far – individual donations truly are essential to the Chorale’s ability to present exceptional and accessible choral music programs here in the Reston community. You can support the Chorale in many ways:

The Community Foundation for Northern Virginia can help you to make a donation of cash, stock, bonds, or instruct you on how to provide a legacy to the Fund in a will.

You can make a donation of any amount at any time. For example, you might donate in celebration of the birth of a child or grandchild, in memory of a loved one, or to note an anniversary. You decide the occasion, and inform Kit Kobran so it will be mentioned in The Reston Chorale concert programs.
