Thank you for your generous support!

We are so grateful to our many donors who have supported us during this difficult time for choirs and arts groups.  Thank you so much for your generous and constant support.

The dragon has always been a symbol of Welsh culture – going as far back as King Arthur’s father – Uther Pendragon (Head Dragon). It recalls the determination of warriors who have stood up for the Celts throughout history. Our thanks to these ‘dragons’, whose donations are helping to keep the Celtic musical tradition alive.

We would like to acknowledge the donations of close to $8,000 which the Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir has received In Memory of Dr. John Crosby who passed away on 15th July, 2020.  John was a long-time member of our choir who is fondly remembered by all those who knew him.  His contributions to the choir are many including music arrangements which remain in our choir’s active repertoire.

We also acknowledge the generous contributions to the choir’s Endowment Fund by Herbert Jenkin, Gerry Hildebrand and Wilfred Wong.

We note that the contribution by RBC Royal Bank was made possible through the participation in the bank’s Employee Volunteer Program by Gail Ryan and Leslie Mak.

 

 

Should you wish to donate by cheque, please make it payable to ‘Vancouver Welsh Men’s Choir’ and mail to the attention of The Treasurer at Box 2978, Main PO, Vancouver, BC V6B 3X4. Thank you!
