We’re TWO WEEKS away from #GIVINGTUESDAY!!!
Today we are announcing one of our goals for this #GivingSeason. We are hoping to reach a goal of $100,000 for our whole Year-End #ChallengeForTheArts to support the arts in the Tri-Valley and Livermore. We also have BIG NEWS, we have special donors who will be doubling donations throughout, effectively stretching your dollars and donations to be even more impactful to the arts!!
So we wanted to start by letting you know of a simple way to donate to us. Enroll for a Membership or Renew your Membership and those dollars will apply to our goal! Why become a member? The circle of giving keeps going: gifts over $125 automatically give you a Membership at Livermore Valley Arts, which gives you additional perks within the arts. Learn more about memberships here: http://livermorearts.org/Membership/
