The Cultural Advocacy Coalition is working for passage of critical legislation and increased funding for the arts in 2016. Funding for arts and culture is precarious in the best of circumstances and we know some would eliminate funding entirely if given the chance. CAC board member John Tess feels so strongly about the importance of their work that he will match the first $1,000 in new or increased membership donations received through June 30, 2015.

Hearts With a Mission (HWAM) is a community run non-profit that serves homeless and at-risk youth in the Rogue Valley.

Recently we have begun coordinating an art class for the kids in the shelter. As a business that shares a common vision as HWAM, we are hoping you will be able to help us get started in these efforts. Are there excess supplies left behind by students that we might utilize for HWAM, or obsolete media that might otherwise go to waste?

TechSoup is a not-for-profit organization that makes donated technology available to nonprofits. Forty major technology providers donate hardware and software, which TechSoup makes available to nonprofits for an administrative fee of as little as 5% of retail cost. In addition, TechSoup’s Refurbished Computer Initiative offers nonprofits low-cost, high-quality computers. TechSoup received the 2008 ArtsTech Award from Carnegie Mellon University in recognition of product donations that have saved arts organizations more than $100 million in expenses since 2001. NASAA regularly uses TechSoup to acquire new software and computer equipment, and many state arts agencies have spread the word about TechSoup among their networks.
