As The Vera Project is settling into our beautiful new space which has hosted tons of great bands and classes we find ourselves in a certain money crunch. We need to raise $33,000 by the end of June to finish paying for our new space and fuel more awesome music and arts programming. We need to raise this money by the end of June because each dollar we raise up to this goal will be doubled by a generous matching grant from the Murdock Charitable trust.
Every donation, no matter how large or small, will make a difference in the lives of thousands of young people and artists. Small amounts can make a huge difference! Here on Myspace alone, we have over 10,000 friends – if everyone donates just three bucks we’ll almost reach our goal!
It’s a great time to donate to Vera! Vera is continuing to have excellent programming on almost every day. We’ve seen more faces in the last year than any year of Vera’s existence. For those who are supporters of all-ages music, youth empowerment and equality this is a small price to pay to support
Here’s how YOU can help:
- Donate! You can donate online here: http://firstgiving.com/theveraproject or you can drop a check in the mail.
