1 other organization in the IRS Business Master File lists the same street address. matched by us

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

Primary exempt purpose

Empire City Men's Chorus is a forward-thinking, urban men's concert chorus dedicated to refreshing men's choral music and the people who experience us.

  • During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, Empire City Men's Chorus advanced its exempt purpose through public choral performances that provided cultural enrichment and increased access to the performing arts. The organization presented its winter program "Dancing Day" through multiple live concerts on December 15, 17, and 18, 2024, and also offered a livestream performance on December 15, 2024, expanding access for audiences unable to attend in person. The organization also presented its spring program "Turn the World Around" with live performances on May 30, 2025 and June 1, 2025, including a livestream on June 1, 2025. These concerts collectively served approximately 975 attendees and viewers and provided performance, musical development, and community-building opportunities for approximately 60 participating singers and 5 artistic collaborators.

    Expenses $97,016

  • Empire City Men's Chorus participated in Gala Choruses Festival 2024 in Minneapolis, MN (July 10-14, 2024), a major LGBTQ+ choral festival that includes concerts, workshops, and community events. Participation in this festival supported the organization's exempt purpose by providing singers with high-quality musical education and performance opportunities, strengthening artistic excellence, and fostering connection within the broader LGBTQ+ choral movement. Approximately 45 chorus members participated, benefiting from rehearsals, workshops, and festival programming and contributing to public-facing performances that advanced LGBTQ+ cultural expression through the performing arts.

    Expenses $9,406

  • Empire City Men's Chorus conducted two member retreats during the fiscal year to support musical education, artistic development, and community engagement among participants. The organization held a multi-day fall retreat at an off-site conference and retreat center, which provided focused rehearsal time, vocal training, and collaborative workshops designed to strengthen musicianship, ensemble cohesion, and leadership development. The chorus also conducted a one-day local spring retreat that provided additional rehearsal, skill-building activities, and community-building opportunities in preparation for upcoming performances. These retreats benefited approximately 60 participating chorus members by enhancing musical skills, supporting artistic excellence, and fostering a supportive and inclusive community environment consistent with the organization's exempt purpose.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
