The Sounds Good program creates a fun, encouraging, and supportive non-auditioned environment in which older adults learn habits of good vocal health. Participants, including lifelong choral singers and newcomers alike, learn and prepare challenging 3- and 4-part choral music with piano accompaniment over a 15-week session in spring and fall,and an 8-week summer session, culminating in free public performances. In 2019, Sounds Good Choirs operated in nine locations including Chicago, its suburbs, and Southwest Michigan. For more information, visit www.soundsgoodchoir.org 103051 Good Memories Choir the Organization provides this choir to bring joy and social connection to the lives of older adults with early-stage memory loss and their care partners, who sing together along with a group of singing volunteers in an ensemble directed by professional choral conductors. During 2019, Good Memories held weekly rehearsals throughout the year in downtown Chicago and launched its Evanston program in the fall. Good Memories gathers weekly for a 90-minute session that includes stretching and vocal warmups, work on 3-part mixed-choir repertoire with piano, and social time with coffee and snacks. The choir is designed to give physical, emotional, social, and spiritual benefits to all participants and particularly to combat the social isolation so common with not only people who are experiencing dementia but also those who care for them. 332422 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 12 0 true 7 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 6 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false IL X SANDRA SIEGEL MILLER 6304415157 501 W OGDEN AVE SUITE 6 HINSDALE IL 60521 JONATHAN MILLER CEO 55.00 0.00 X 80250 0 0 MATRICE CALDWELL Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ALICE E DOLAN President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 BIRNIE HARPER Treasurer 3.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 DOUGLAS LIEBERMAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DEANINE MCGILL Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 NANCY VINCENT Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 80250 0 false false false 0 333145 333145 CHOIR FEES 711130 196971 196971 196971 1449 1449 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 531565 196971 1449 0 0 0 0 80250 60188 16050 4012 0 106127 79595 21225 5307 3036 2277 607 152 15503 10852 3488 1163 19799 14849 3960 990 0 550 550 900 900 0 0 0 0 3832 3832 10499 6872 3606 21 0 0 26024 23624 1500 900 0 0 0 0 0 61 61 648 648 OUTSIDE SERVICES 77838 76098 240 1500 SHEET MUSIC 25521 25521 TRAVEL AND MEETINGS 7149 6200 821 128 Printing and Publications 6020 6020 30078 20326 5244 4508 413835 332422 62732 18681 82401 170343 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 409 61 348 25063 0 0 0 0 82401 195754 4377 4377 0 X 78024 195754 78024 195754 82401 195754 117730 X false true X true false X 58226 165271 281913 521832 1027242 0 0 0 0 58226 165271 281913 521832 1027242 0 0 1027242 0 0 0 0 58226 165271 281913 521832 1027242 X 0.00000 0.00000 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 409 61 348 348 X 531565 531565 531565 413835 413835 413835 Part X : FIN48 Footnote The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Foundation may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Foundation and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2019.
