Announcing Freemasons Foundation as the Official Gold Partner of the World Choir Games 2024

The Freemasons Foundation supports significant change-making projects that bring people together to make New Zealand (and the world) a better place. Together, the World Choir Games and the Freemasons Foundation share a joint belief that singing together brings nations together. This partnership will give some of Auckland’s less-advantaged secondary school choirs the opportunity to participate in this inspiring, enriching event.

The Freemasons Foundation has a long-held reputation in the arts sector of New Zealand and an extensive history of supporting communities across the country. The partnership with the World Choir Games is unique in providing an opportunity to support diversity and inclusion at the Games.

This partnership is in line with the Foundation’s desire “to provide young New Zealanders the opportunity to experience life-changing events and to expand their horizons through meeting other like-minded people from around the world and sharing culture and friendship”. Freemasons Chair, Mark Winger, says, “We are delighted to be supporting this event and look forward to sharing it with the community.”

This funding will enable the participation of students from underserved schools who would not otherwise be able to take part. For some young people, the World Choir Games will be an early eye- and ear-opener to the expressive power of singing together; for others, it will be a world-sized affirmation of a pursuit that already means so much to them.
