For nearly 40 years, GRAMMY Award-winning Los Angeles Children’s Chorus has been one of the country’s leading nonprofit youth choral music organizations. Each year, our transformative music education and performance programs train, nurture, and empower more than 500 choristers, ages 6-18, preparing these young people for success on the concert stage, in the classroom, and in life.
With earned revenues from tuition and ticket sales accounting for less than 60 percent of our operating budget, we count on the generous philanthropic support of individuals, corporations, foundations, and governmental agencies.
