In our 2026-27 season, we're singing 33 songs, a total of 3,732 measures of music. Currently, we're $15,000 away from our fundraising goal.

$4/measure may seem small--less than the price of a cup of coffee. But multiply that by 3,732 measures, and it adds up quickly for a small community ensemble that has only been around for four years.

Over the past 12 months, we have worked tirelessly to secure support through grants, silent asks, and paid performances to map our biggest season to date. In June 2027, Suara will perform at the prestigious Chorus America national conference as one of the eight selected choirs, presenting a 25-minute concert in front of choral leaders across the country. A month later, we are going on our first international concert tour to Canada, participating in the 2027 HarbourVOICES International Festival of Collective Singing.

Today, we are reaching out to our community to get us across the finish line. Gathering this additional $15,000 will directly support our mission: provide travel financial assistance for our singers heading to Canada—many of whom are still university students; allow us to pay for extra rehearsals as we prepare what might be our most important performance to date at Chorus America; and sustain the full ecosystem behind an artistic organization: insurance, accounting, website hosting, and the many unseen costs that make this work possible.

Every sponsored measure brings us closer to our simplest yet boldest dream since day one: "we’re here to stay."
