AFWDC's primary purpose is to raise funds to subsidize the travel expenses of Far Western District quartets which qualify to compete at the Barbershop Harmony Society's international quartet contest. This is done with the proceeds of two shows produced annually: the "Past Champs Show", held the Friday evening of the district's annual convention; and the "Go For The Gold Show", held each June.
