GTMD_logo

We are excited to let you know about a great CCS fundraising opportunity!

We hope you will support our Glorious Music in a Glorious Setting® by joining in on this special event!


This special online fundraising effort will take place on Wednesday, November 9. CCS is registered, along with many other non-profits. Gifts made to CCS through the Razoo.com website on that day will not only support CCS directly but will also put CCS in the running for prizes. Organizations are eligible for prizes both for the highest dollar amount raised and for the highest number of individual donors.

SO, you yourself can make a gift (minimum is $10) and also ask your family and friends, far and wide, to consider a gift to CCS on Give to the Max Day.


It's easy! On November 9, go to Razoo.com and select "donate," then enter Cathedral Choral Society 
or click here!


You can use your American Express, VISA or MasterCard for payment.

Full disclosure: Razoo charges a 2.9% administrative fee which is paid by CCS, not the donor.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear Friend of the Cathedral Choral Society, 

We had hoped by now to be able to tell you that our first concert on October 28 will be moved to The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception due to the ongoing closure of Washington National Cathedral. Unfortunately, that venue has not been confirmed yet but we expect to hear in the next day or so and will let you know as soon as we do.  Thank you so much for your patience during this difficult time.

Sincerely,


Alison Combes
Executive Director
