Shalom fine Chavah fans,
As part of Messiah’s Music Fund, you all have donated $1730 to Messianic musicians last month:
- $415 in monthly donations – from 35 individuals who donate monthly to Messiah’s Music Fund
- $1,115 in one-time donations – from 7 individuals (Beth T., Rebecca & Ronald H., Donald & Bonnie B., David & Jacqueline N., Tectonics Inc, Neil & Pamela C., Karen & Melvyn C.) who gave a one-time donations in December
- $200 from myself
Since July 2020 when Messiah’s Music Fund began, you Chavah listeners have donated $5,565 to Messiah’s musicians. That’s a great deal of support to Messiah’s musicians in a time when they need it most due to COVID restrictions (no concerts, no travel, no guest musicians at congregations, etc.). Thank you, generous people of God! This is the largest amount you have ever given. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for tangibly blessing God’s musicians with your year-end giving.
As a reminder, we distribute funds based on the number of times an artist’s songs are played on Chavah. Artists whose songs play more often on Chavah receive more financial support. Here are the raw numbers for December 2020, ordered by largest payout.
