The Keynote Chorus is a nonprofit organization. The annual budget receives support from several different sources, including individual and business Patron sponsorships.
Patron sponsorship levels range from the Patron level at $10 to the Diamond level at $250 or higher. Individuals and Businesses who elect to be Diamond or Platinum patrons may
supply artwork for a 4"H x 5"W or a 2"H x 5"W display box respectively to be placed in concert programs.
All patrons are recognized in the programs for the main concerts, and in the handouts for all benefit concerts. Hence, patrons receive exposure as a sponsor for an entire concert year,
which can be very cost effective.

The Chorus is currently a grantee of the New York State Council on the Arts Decentralization Regrant Program administered by the Cattaraugus County Arts Council. This is an annual grant program that must be applied for each year in October. Renewals are not guaranteed, but the Chorus has been fortunate to receive funding in most years.
