Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We will provide a year-round opportunity for labor union members to sing collectively through rehearsal and performance at least 30 times. At least 20 labor organizations will support us through participation in their events and financial or in-kind donations. We will log rehearsal and performance dates, financial contributions, and conduct an annual satisfaction survey of participants.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The labor chorus continues to inject singing into Minnesota's labor movement and we easily can tell with our ears that the number of people who sing-along enthusiastically continues to grow. We continue to attract new members, adding three new members this year.
