Your Contributions are Greatly Appreciated
Every year friends of Performing Hearts help us provide logistical and other support to our network of volunteers. Your financial contributions can help make our campaign a success. For 2010 and beyond, we are adding professional instructors scheduled to lead classes on a weekly basis in permanent facilities. These resources come at additional cost and any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated. We make it easy -- you may make a contribution by credit card or debit card, or use your PayPal account:
Performing Hearts receives all of its operating resources from contributions - in many cases, from unsolicited donors and others as a direct result of fundraising activities. Performing Hearts is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and contributions are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. Fundraising that is ongoing includes primarily website-based solicitations. Special event fundraising is based on one-time and annual events such as theater-based variety shows, annual gala / dinner dance and annual golf outings. Performing Hearts funding comes from three principle sources: (1) Contributions from the general public, predominantly individuals close to performing arts activities; (2) Contributions from corporate sponsors in the form of cash and supplies for the community service events; and (3) Performing Hearts conducted fundraising events such as annual golf events or special performances provide additional funding in ticket sales proceeds and the sale of donated materials through event-based auctions.
