How your donation will be used

The Northampton Bach Choir will use your generous donation in a number of specific ways. We are committed to enabling anyone with a talent to be able to join the choir, irrespective of financial circumstances, and we are establishing a fund to help those for whom our membership fee is too tall an order. We are also looking for support for our next tour (date yet to be confirmed).

Aside from these specific projects, the choir is always grateful for any donation to help defray the not inconsiderable costs of mounting live musical performances here in our community. Hiring an orchestra for our concerts can cost as much as £10,000, and it is impossible to raise those funds in ticket sales alone.

If you wish to make your donation for a specific cause, please contact our Treasurer directly using our Contact Us page.

Ways to donate money

You can donate money in various ways through our PayPal account. You can either donate one of our recommended one-off amounts, specify a one-off donation of your choosing, one of our recommended monthly amounts or you can specify a monthly amount of your choosing. Monthly donation payments continue indefinitely and can be cancelled at any time through your PayPal account. They will be listed under 'My Preapproved Payments'. If you do not have a PayPal account, please contact us and we will be more than happy to cancel your monthly donation. For more information please see PayPal's guide on cancelling subscription payments.
