With its endowment, why does ACDA-MN need my membership dues?

Annual membership helps ensure that the ACDA-MN is strong each year, while the endowment builds a strong foundation for coming years.

Membership

• Annual membership supports the operating budget and, thereby, benefits current ACDA-MN members and your students each year.
• Membership creates and supports a vital community for choral musicians in Minnesota.

Endowment

• Endowment giving benefits current and future ACDA-MN members and your students. The original gift is invested in the endowment fund.
• 5% of each endowed fund’s market value is paid out each year for our scholarship programs that support members and their students.
• That income supports the administrative budget, taking pressure off membership dues to fund the entire cost of ACDA-MN programs.
