Money Making Ideas for a Choir
If you're looking for fund-raising ideas for your church choir, you've come to the right place! Here are some ways that your choir can make money.
-
Host a Luncheon After Church Services to Raise Money
-
Have choir members donate items for a simple lunch like soups, salads and bread. At the luncheon, ask for a suggested donation of anywhere from $3 to $5 per person, with a $15 maximum per family.
Host an Open Mic Night at the Church
-
Surely there's enough talent in the choir to get the show started. Choir members and congregants could also invite people from outside the church to perform. What a fun night for the audience and the performers, and at $5 to $10 a ticket, it'll be a profitable night, too.
-
Auction off a Performance
-
A choir performance would make a great wedding gift, or a very memorable private party. Arrange a "silent auction" in your church and be sure to update the "highest bid" status frequently. You could also auction your performance on eBay.
Sell Singing Telegrams
-
Imagine how special it would be to be serenaded by your wedding song on your anniversary, or to be surprised by having your favorite hymn sung to you followed by the "Happy Birthday" song. Have choir members take turns delivering singing telegrams for a fee of $25 each.
Give Introductory Voice or Instrument Lessons
-
Offer a three- or four-week session of 45-minute music lessons after the church service.There are sure to be many members of your choir who have the ability to share their talents in this way.
