- this year's concert

opera, songs, chamber music
to support the Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis

Friends: Sponsor your artist friend on-line!

• Donate on the Music to Cure MS Firstgiving page (the donation will be made in the name Marion Carroll)
• Or look for your friends' Firstgiving pages (not all of them have set up a page), and donate on-line in their names.

Artists: Your friends can support you, even if they can't attend the concert. Set up your own Firstgiving page so you can tell your personal story about why you are supporting the Accelerated Cure Project, and so your friends can donate in your name.

• Visit the Firstgiving site
• Click on "Get Started"
• Click on Music to Cure MS
• Create your personalized fundraising web page (the website will walk you through the process step by step)
• Email your new page's URL to all your friends, family, colleagues, club members...

Old-fashioned option: Gather support off-line. Ask your friends to donate through your personal Sponsor an Artist form.

Recruit personal sponsors through our Sponsor-a-Singer forms, and reimburse yourself for carfare or gas for the rehearsal and performance.

Download paper forms (Word), or donate on line.
