#2 PLEDGE YOUR SUPPORT
|
SAACA believes that every culture has a history and tradition to honor. This common thread allows us to communicate across cultures in a universal language and understand one another in a different way. By supporting local arts and creativity, we animate our city with culture, empathy and create a stronger sense of place. Your individual investment in a vibrant Arizona today unlocks the creative potential for each of us tomorrow. A world without art would be a world without a voice or means for communication. We know that arts and culture record our history, challenges our present and informs our future.
A monthly or one-time pledge of support can help change the shape of our community through art. When you support our programs, 100% of your donation goes directly back into our community. You can designate your support to programs which you are passionate about, and help SAACA innovate news ways for the arts to transform the lives of people everywhere. |
There are many ways to support SAACA's innovative and life changing arts and cultural programs. For more information on planned giving, corporate and foundation partnerships or specifics of your annual gift, please contact: Kate Marquez, Executive Director kate@saaca.org
