Dear Donors,

 
I am an accomplished jazz singer, opera singer, songwriter and composer. Music is my life, my dream, and my reality. My mother told me that before I spoke, I sang.  My love of music is the single most important factor in my life, and I live solely to perform.  Decades of struggles, pains, joys, and achievements have brought me to this point of soliciting your assistance.  

 
I do believe that success occurs when opportunity meets preparation.  I have been preparing for this opportunity for at least three decades, and I am more than prepared to tackle the hard, tedious work to be successful.

 I have performed at the UN, Carnegie Hall, Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater, and the Barclays Center to name a few. I have collaborated musically on a four-song cycle with John Harbison, the Pulitzer Prize-winning and Metropolitan Opera commissioned composer for “the Great Gatsby.”  I have even received distinguished awards, among them:

 A NAACP Image Award

A Congratulatory Letter from the United Nations

The Caribbean Heritage Celebration Award

 I am more than qualified and confident to accept my new challenges which consist of my one woman show at Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater on Thursday April 25th at 9:30 pm, auditioning and being selected to perform in Susquehanna Opera’s Rising Stars Summer Program in York, PA as well as other opportunities on the horizon .

 However, I am in need of a serious financial blessing. For me to prepare for both of these events, I require monetary assistance of $5000 I am appreciative of any donation. The funds requested are to pay for my musican’s to perform at Joe’s Pub and for the summer opera program that I did receive a partial scholarship for . Words cannot express my appreciation and I promise to deliver performances worthy of your support. Please follow the links below for any additional information regarding me as a performer, and the program I am attempting to complete.

 Thanking you in advance,

Marie-Claire  Giraud
