John,

Since we are only hours away from the New Year, I wanted to reach out one last time to ask you to make a tax-deductible gift that will be TRIPLED!

Performing arts and entertainment professionals nationwide are counting on us in the year ahead. Please don’t wait—make your tax-deductible gift now before it’s too late!

With your support, we will be able to provide critical resources to those in need.

Thank you again for your generosity, and Happy New Year!

D. Alex Agard, CFRE (he, him, his)
Director of Individual Giving

P.S. If you have already made your gift and it hasn’t reached our system yet, thank you!

John,

This is it: today is the last day to make a tax-deductible gift for 2025, and the final day of our $100,000 Matching Gift Challenge!

We are counting on you to help us reach our goal by midnight. Your gift will be TRIPLED up to $100,000 to help more arts and entertainment professionals get the help they need in the year ahead!

The mission of the Entertainment Community Fund has never been more critical. Every day, we receive a growing number of urgent requests for help from actors, stage managers, lighting technicians, dancers, writers, costume designers and many more industry professionals, and we are working to expand our reach so we can help even more people.

John, your generosity will do so much to support members of the performing arts and entertainment community who are relying on the Fund in 2026.

Don’t wait—make your tax-deductible gift now while there’s still time for you to have 3X the impact!

I am so grateful for all that you do to support a life in the arts. On behalf of everyone at the Entertainment Community Fund, I wish you a safe and healthy New Year!

With gratitude,

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

P.S. Please give now—it will make such a difference for our entertainment community professionals!
