Help us make our 70th anniversary season a success.
We plan to return to live concerts this fall, kicking off our 70th anniversary season with a Remembrance Concert on September 11. Other highlights include a return engagement ofConsidering Matthew Shepard, Christmas with the Charlotte Master Chorale, and the annual Unity Concert—as well as performances of Handel's Messiah and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with the Charlotte Symphony.
We are less than two weeks away from our June 30 fiscal year end. To sustain our work and make our 70th anniversary season a success, we need your participation. Support from friends who believe in what we do is vital to our ability to continue to build bridges through song.
Our Board of Directors is offering a challenge. Board members will match the first $11,000 of contributions raised by June 30. That means that the power of your gift is automtically doubled. Double your impact by giving today. If you have already contributed, we thank you!
Your support inspires us. Thank you!

2021 Tax Benefits
Federal legislation passed in late December 2020 includes two important provisions for 2021 that make giving to the Charlotte Master Chorale and other nonprofits more advantageous to donors. Federal taxpayers who do not itemize their deductions can claim a deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions made during 2021 beyond that standard deduction.
Married couples filing jointly are allowed a deduction of up to $600 This is an increase from 2020, when the limit was $300 regardless of filing status. In addition, the legislation extends the ability for cash gifts of up to 100 percent of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) to be counted as a charitable deduction, if you itemize. Previously, no more than 60 percent of AGI could be treated as a charitable deduction. We hope that donors to the CMC will take advantage of this time-limited opportunity to support our mission of helping to unify the community through music.
