Help keep our community choir on its feet! #GivingTuesday

ABOUT OUR CHOIR

WHCC is a no-audition community choir, one of a handful in NYC and the only one serving Upper Manhattan. We're a lively, diverse, and welcoming group that loves to sing and believes in the power of music to spread joy and build community!

REBUILDING OUR FOUNDATION
Established in 2016 by a local church, we were disbanded in May 2022 due to budget challenges. We were devastated yet determined to stay together. A resilient bunch, we quickly regrouped and are now reestablishing ourselves as a sustainable, standalone nonprofit.

Last spring 2025, due to some unfortunate circumstances and despite best efforts of the congregation and community to help save it, we lost our original home at Fort Washington Collegiate Church. We hope the congregation are able to reopen as soon as time and funds allow but meanwhile we have found a new home at the Mother Francis Cabrini Shine, which is a truly amazing and beautiful space to sing and perform in. We are so grateful to have been embraced by both spaces and to keep on singing together.

HELP KEEP THE MUSIC ALIVE
We’re eager to remain on our feet, and become a permanent fixture in our community – but we need your support! Money raised will go toward paying our Choir Director, accompanist, music licensing, marketing, and other administrative costs.

Your donation will keep us singing and help us expand our activities in upper Manhattan!
