The Funding (Expenses & Donations)
|
1000 Voices is funded solely
by donations from individuals. It is not sponsored or financially
supported by any religious or corporate organization. I have set up a
bank account solely for the purpose of 1000 Voices.
Since the
inception of 1000 Voices I have funded the event
myself.
However, with the generous spirit of so many I have been very
blessed to recoup many of
my expense. For example in 2006 expenses ran about $8100,
and I received nearly $5700 in donation at the event. If there
is a surplus (donations exceed expenses), it will go into the
1000 Voices bank account, and be used the following year.
Expenses have averaged $5000 the past 6 years.
The expenses for the 2006 event were as follows:
 |
Song Books |
$2,797.66 |
|
Travel Expenses |
$1,017.60 |

I do not plan on ever charging admission for 1000 Voices. In order
to recover expenses for 1000 Voices each year, I ask individuals
for donations. In order to provide people
with something to remember the weekend, we put together our own song
booklets every year,
and record the event. I do not sell these items, but I will be glad to
provide copies in exchange for a small donation to help cover the
expenses.
Your donation will be gladly welcomed and help ensure future events.
