  • THE ANNUAL FIRST COAST HONORS CHOIR FESTIVAL IS IN ITS 22ND YEAR. THIS FESTIVAL IS DESIGNED FOR AREA ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN SELECTED BY THEIR MUSIC TEACHERS TO PARTICIPATE. STUDENTS COME FROM BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS. THIS YEAR 123 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED, REPRESENTING 17 SCHOOLS ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTH FLORIDA. DURING THE FESTIVAL, STUDENTS ARE EXPOSED TO NEW AND DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSIC AND ARE LED BY A GUEST CLINICIAN. AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE DAY-LONG WORKSHOP, PARENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS ARE TREATED TO A CONCERT WHERE THE SINGERS PRESENT WHAT THEY HAVE LEARNED THROUGHOUT THE DAY'S EVENTS.

  • OUR PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN AGES 18 MONTHS TO 5 YEARS. EACH CHILD, ALONG WITH THEIR PARENTS OR CAREGIVERS, EXPERIENCE SINGING, CREATIVE MOVEMENT, SIMPLE INSTRUMENTS, AND FINGER PLAYS WITH HELP FORM A RICH COLLECTION OF TRADITIONAL SONGS, RHYMES, AND LITERATURE. MUSIC IGNITES ALL AREAS OF CHILD DEVELOPMENT: INTELLECTUAL, SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, LANGUAGE, MEMORY AND OVERALL LITERACY.EXPOSING CHILDREN TO MUSIC DURING EARLY DEVELOPMENT HELPS THEM LEARN THE SOUNDS AND MEANINGS OF WORDS AS THEY EXPLORE VOCAL SOUNDS AND SINGING. DANCING TO MUSIC HELPS CHILDREN BUILD MOTOR SKILLS WHILE ALLOWING THEM TO PRACTICE SELF-EXPRESSION. FOR TODDLERS AND PRE-SCHOOLERS, MUSIC IS MAKING A DYNAMIC SOCIAL LEARNING EXPERIENCE - POTENTIALLY PREPARING THEM FOR FUTURE PARTICIPATION IN THE JACKSONVILLE CHILDREN'S CHORUS' PERFORMING CHOIRS. WHILE MAKING MUSIC TOGETHER, CHILDREN LEARN TEAMWORK AS THEY CONTRIBUTE TO SONGS AND LEARN THAT TOGETHER THEY CAN MAKE SOMETHING BETTER THAN THEY COULD INDIVIDUALLY.

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. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. 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.

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.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

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.
