Dear John,

As a proud member of the entertainment industry and Chair of the Board of the Entertainment Community Fund, I was so moved to see the outpouring of support from everyone on Giving Tuesday!

To continue the good news, I am excited to announce that the Jean and Albert Nerken Foundation and The Tow Foundation have generously offered to match your gift three to one, up to $100,000!

That means your tax-deductible gift will do 3X the good. However, this opportunity is only available through December 31—so please make your year-end contribution now!

Having a career in performing arts is never easy. With continued ramifications of the pandemic and the historic work stoppage last year, the industry has not fully recovered, and professionals working in entertainment are facing ongoing obstacles.

Urgent requests for help from actors, dancers, camera operators, make-up artists, screenwriters and so many others keep coming. People who have dedicated their lives to the performing arts and entertainment are having difficulties paying rent, buying groceries and even affording health insurance.

Amidst these obstacles, your dedication has brought much-needed comfort, security and stability to thousands of people when they needed it most. Without your support, the Fund wouldn’t be able to provide them with the vital safety net they need.

We expect to receive even more requests for help in 2025, and we need your continued commitment to meet them. Please take advantage of this opportunity now to TRIPLE your impact!

John, thank you so much for your generosity and commitment to the Entertainment Community Fund!

Annette Bening (she, her, hers)
Chair of the Board
