Why support singers traveling to NAVE events?
NAVE is unique among choirs as our members live in ten different States! Once a year we gather together for a weekend of rehearsals, a free concert or two, and often contribute to the worship service at a host church. We are always on the lookout for a church nave for an impromptu concert.
We also sing for competitions and invitational conferences. Some members have assisted other singing groups to spread the NAVE mission outside of the US and donations can help all members travel far and wide to create magical performances and interactions with the audience.
In 2025 NAVE became eligible for charitable donations when we incorporated as a non-profit in Texas. Our mission has not changed, we only hope to expand our reach. We invite you to join our roster of supporters. We will keep you informed of NAVE’s travels and you can help us continue to sing and bring joy around the world. Please let me know how you would like NAVE to keep in touch.
Singers volunteer our time and talents. Our all-volunteer Board stewards donations. We are recognized by Candid with Gold Level Transparency. North American Vocal Ensemble is a 501(c)(3) non-profit incorporated in Texas EIN: 41-2737671

Our Mission
NAVE – The North American Vocal Ensemble Mission is to present free concerts that educate the public about the joy of singing, strengthen community through intergenerational and cultural collaborations, and serve as a replicable model for other ensembles who wish to do the same.
NAVE supports and advances choral excellence through education, travel, and public performance. The organization coordinates rehearsal retreats, liturgical performances, and international collaborations, while providing need-based subsidies for members’ travel expenses. NAVE also produces concerts and outreach programs to engage diverse communities and fosters cultural exchange through vocal music.
Our Vision
We want to allow our singers to travel and share great choral music with audiences across the globe; to travel, uplift, and educate people through our performances; and, to bring harmony, collaboration, and joy to our members and our audiences.
