"If we can bring joy and laughter while also helping keep our neighbors off the streets, then we've done something meaningful. You may not see the faces of those you’re helping, but your support makes a real difference. By keeping our performers' identities hidden, we emphasize the need to unmask the reality of homelessness in Quincy and Hannibal." Tickets for the event are $75 per person or $550 for a table of eight. Doors will open at 6:00 pm, with dinner being served at 6:30. A cash bar will be available.  Emcees for the night will be Chad Douglas and Director of Development Matt Schmidt. The opening act will take the stage at 7 pm. Before each act takes the stage, clues as to who is behind the mask will be read. During each round of performances, audience members will be encouraged to vote by donations ($1 = 1 vote) for their favorite act. All eight acts will perform one song - then votes will be tallied. The five performers with the lowest amount raised will be unmasked. The top three acts that raise the most in Round 1 will then move to Round 2. Audience members will again be voting for their favorite act to win. At the end of Round 2, votes will once again be tallied, and the act with the most votes will be crowned the People's Choice Unmasking the Singer 2025 winner. The evening of entertainment, while raising much-needed funds for The Salvation Army, will also include a few surprise acts, information about The Salvation Army, and a delicious dinner.  Once the new UMTS fan favorite winner is announced, the race to be the top fundraiser begins. Each participant will be given an additional nine days (through May 4) to see who can raise the most money. Each contestant will be given an online Red Kettle. Contestants can also fundraise in other ways, accepting cash or checks personally or dropped off at The Salvation Army Kroc Center. All online fundraising will stop at midnight on Sunday, May 4.  For more information, contact Jake Reed at 217-231-5647 or <a href="mailto:Chad.Douglas@USC.SalvationArmy.org" target="_blank" style="text-decoration-color:initial;-webkit-user-select:auto;box-sizing:inherit"></a>Jake.Reed@usc.salvationarmy.org.
