Dear John,

At the Entertainment Community Fund, we have recently embarked on the most ambitious capacity-building effort in our history: tripling the number of people we serve. To accomplish this goal, we launched the ESSENTIAL Campaign.

In support of this effort, we have set a goal to raise $10,000 by the end of the week, and we need your help! Please make a generous gift today.

This industry we hold dear has been through a lot in recent years. These tough times highlighted two urgent truths: the arts are essential to a life well-lived, and the Fund is essential to the entertainment community.

Through the ESSENTIAL Campaign, we seek to raise the funds needed to serve more people in more places today and for years to come. This effort will allow us to expand and sustain our vitally important programs, grow our Emergency Relief Reserve Fund and support mission-critical capital projects.

You’re invited to take center stage in this effort by supporting the ESSENTIAL Campaign with a tax-deductible gift now.

I know how deeply you treasure performing arts and entertainment. I also know that you recognize the magnitude of what goes into creating every scene, dance number and performance. Thank you so much for your generosity and commitment.

With appreciation,

Joe Benincasa (he, him, his)
President & CEO
