<div>Hi, we are the <strong>Illinois Rip Chords</strong>! We are a competitive, treble a cappella group from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The Rips love performing for audiences with our powerhouse sound and are well-remembered for our creative choreography and consistent blend. We perform at various fall and spring concerts and compete in the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA) annually. In 2016, the Rip Chords placed first in the Great Lakes Quarterfinals and advanced to the Semifinal round, and in 2021, we placed third in the Quarterfinals. We also tour high schools every January to perform for high school students across Illinois!

<div>This year, we are very excited to compete in ICCA and visit high schools in January, and are seeking donations to help cover travel expenses for the competition and high school tours. <strong>Any contribution, big or small, that you can make would help us immensely in reaching our musical goals.</strong> We are so grateful, and we thank you so much for your support!
