Aaron and Andrew's Byz Chant Exam

Donation protected
Our friends Aaron Gilbert and Andrew Otto are both great guys who have a lot going for them. They also happen to be great chanters, and there's no question that he would rock Holy Cross' Byzantine music certificate exam, the one accredited credential for the Psaltic Art that one can get in the United States.

There's just one problem.

Taking the exam costs $1,500*, and Aaron and Andrew, seminarians just finishing up (and in Aaron's case, also a newly-married man), don't exactly have that burning holes in their respective pockets right now, and Holy Cross doesn't yet really have a scholarship program lined up for students in his position.

Aaron and Andrew are both too good as chanters to leave Holy Cross without taking the exam. Let's create a scholarship for them; they deserve it.

(*Whatever we raise in excess of Aaron and Andrew's exam fees will pay GoFundMe administrative expenses and be donated to Holy Cross to start a scholarship fund for future examinees.)
