The Flagship Fundraiser of Rock Landing Foundation
More Than a Competition — A Movement
A high-energy live choir competition uniting churches, schools, and community groups in a celebration of music, voice, and purpose. Every sponsorship directly funds the Rock Landing Foundation’s mission of providing transitional housing for youth aging out of foster care.
Watch & Learn
What is Choir Versus?
A short 60–90 second explainer for first-time viewers, founding sponsors, and church / school recruitment.
The Concept
A Live Choir Competition. A Cultural Experience. A Cause.
Choir Versus is a high-energy live competition experience that brings together talented vocal groups from churches, schools, and community organizations for an electrifying showcase of music, creativity, and culture.
Blending the spirit of gospel, performance, and community, Choir Versus creates an unforgettable atmosphere where audiences don’t just watch — they engage, vote, and become part of the experience.
“More Than a Competition — A Movement”
Inspired by the cultural energy of Verzuz battles and re-imagined for the choral world, Choir Versus combines online audience engagement with a packed-house live experience — the kind of event communities talk about long after the final note.
Inside the Event
The Format
20 Choirs

Digital Reach
Online engagement before, during, and after the event — amplifying every choir’s brand and every sponsor’s exposure.
Every Dollar Counts

The Mission Behind the Music
Every Note. Every Sponsorship. Every Dollar.
Choir Versus is born from the same vision as the Rock Landing Foundation. We created this event as a powerful fundraiser — where every sponsorship directly funds our mission.
All proceeds go toward our transitional home, ensuring that young people aging out of foster care have a place to land, grow, and thrive. By supporting Choir Versus, you are directly empowering these young lives — helping to stop the cycle of homelessness and build stable futures.
We are building a family — for the familyless.
