You support is important to us It is the policy of Confluence that “No one is turned away from lack of funds. This includes both audience members and chorus members. Donations help fund scholarships for chorus members who are not able to afford the fees and expenses associated with membership. They also help fund overhead expenses for a single concert — rental of performance space, advertising and printing; transporting risers—to name a few, which increase from year to year. We have not raised tickets prices in the last five years. Chorus members and staff commit their time, energy, and financial resources to perform for you. We so appreciate your continued support. Here are ways you can help.

Equity Fund Workplace Giving You may donate to Confluence via a pledge to Equity Fund Workplace Giving if you work for one of these workplaces: State of Oregon, Axium, Benton County, City of Portland, Combined Federal Campaign (#75952), Energy Trust of Oregon, Gales Creek, IBM, Kaiser-Permanente, Metro, Morrison Family Services, Multnomah County, OHSU, Port of Portland, Portland Public Schools, Raphael House, TriMet, United Way of the Columbia Willamette Donor Choice Program, The Standard, and Wells Fargo.

Oregon Cultural Trust Donate directly to Confluence, and use your entire contribution as a charitable deduction on both state & federal income tax returns. Because Confluence is an OCT “participating” cultural non-profit, you may then make a contribution directly to OCT, in any amount up to the amount you contributed to Confluence. Then deduct the full amount of the contribution to OCT as a tax credit on your Oregon income tax return. Go to http://www.culturaltrust.org/give for their “how to” instructions.
