Tax-deductible donation information
The Fort Mill High School Choral Boosters are a nonprofit 501-3(c) organization. Under the Contact Us link, please see director Michael Dove's or the choral booster contact information for more information on donating and for our tax ID number. You may also contact your financial advisor for more information. We would love to have you support us.
Unlike many high school Broadway shows, FMHS productions are almost professional. Our shows include professionally rented backdrops, and our spring (and oftentimes fall) shows include professionally rented costumes. The cast usually numbers around 75 per show and rehearses for three months before the production. To visualize the quality (and expense) of our shows, and therefore our need for corporate sponsors, please see the You-Tube Archives link on this webpage.
FMHS Choral Booster’s Mission
- to raise money for the FMHS chorus and Broadway musical programs
- to supply these programs with volunteers needed to run them
- to relieve Director Michael Dove of logistical duties so he can concentrate on the musical and creative aspects of the concerts/Broadway productions
Reasons for fundraising
- Chorus students must pay for concert clothing.
- Broadway show cast members must pay costume rental fees (~$100).
- The general choral department must pay for competition fees, backdrops, microphones, music, body mics, All-State tryouts, royalties, stage props, sound/lighting, posters, soundboards, and more.
- Chorus students who want to go on the annual chorus Spring Break concert tour/trip must pay for it.
Our Broadway shows are a gift to the community and involve high school students (as well as sometimes middle and elementary school students). Funds we earn are churned back into the program to use for the next Broadway show.
