  • Your gift of $15 could help bring a volunteer to CMVic HQ, enabling them to spend a day updating our gorgeous website with heaps of useful musical resources for singers, musicians and leaders across Victoria to use and enjoy
  • Your gift of $55 could provide a full hour of expert advice, support or publicity to an emerging singing or instrumental group helping them grow and develop
  • Your gift of $110 could provide a subsidised youth place, either at Grantville Music Camp, or the CMVic Singing Camp helping an emerging leader participate in music making or singing in a warm and supportive environment
  • Your gift of $550 could help us put on a new workshop at one of our events.
  • A gift of $1,000 could help support the production of our next songbook, enabling singing leaders bring new songs to life for choirs across Victoria.

Community Music Victoria is an independent, not-for-profit, membership based organisation which relies on a mix of Government funding, membership fees, sponsorship and your donation to exist. Your support is fundamental to the future of CMVic and to our broadening the take up of community music making in Victoria. Through your efforts, over the last couple of years we’ve been able to:

  • Create hundreds of new songs and tunes to share with our communities at over a dozen major festivals and events
  • Provide mentoring support all over Victoria to over 30 new singing and playing groups with unique benefits for communities, including the stroke support group in Geelong, and the Singlish project in Brimbank which supports the learning of English as a second language
  • Involve a growing number of young people in the making of music for the first time; youth led workshops at our numerous residential camps are creating a whole new participation and leadership culture
  • Support our growing network of a hundred or more singing and playing leaders by putting on events where skills and materials are freely shared

To see all of the amazing things your support helped us achieve over the course of 2016, read our annual report here.
