Fundraising Drive Status

Did you know that tomorrow is Giving Tuesday?!? #GivingTuesdayNow is a new global day of giving and unity that takes place tomorrow, May 5, 2020 (in addition to the regularly scheduled Dec 1, 2020 #GivingTuesday) as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. Learn more:

When looking for the best use of your stimulus check, please consider a donation to Hillcrest Wind Ensemble.

We are very happy to report that as of May 4, we have raised $3,600! This is absolutely amazing, and we would like to extend our most heartfelt and deep thank-you to everyone who has donated. It is hugely appreciated.
 
While this means that we have surpassed our original goal, any additional donations are always welcome. In terms of our spring concert that was cancelled, we have, through our fundraising drive, sold 180 tickets. However, our virtual performance hall could still hold another 50 people! While we have tentatively scheduled concerts for the fall and holiday, we have no way of knowing if they may be cancelled, thus losing that source of revenue.

If you are aware of any businesses or friends who would be willing to consider a donation, please forward this Email to them.

Remember that all donations may be tax-deductible.

Thank you for your continued support and sponsorship,

HWE's commitment to the health and safety of our audience and musicians is paramount, and though these steps are difficult and painful, it is necessary to take them. HWE has approached the unfolding coronavirus situation with seriousness and care, and we have not made these decisions lightly. We wish to take every possible measure to ensure the continuing health and well-being of our audience and musicians.
