Dear John,

I am so profoundly thankful for your support last year! You played a key role in providing a safety net for performing arts and entertainment professionals experiencing difficult times.

Now, we are launching our 2026 Annual Fund Drive, and we need your help once again. By making your annual gift to the Entertainment Community Fund this week, you can ensure we’re ready to meet all the challenges ahead!

This year, many in our industry who have dedicated their lives to working on stage, on screen and behind the scenes find themselves at risk of losing access to health services and are struggling to afford basic necessities.

That’s why your 2026 Annual Fund contribution is so important. It will make a tangible difference in the lives of thousands of performing arts and entertainment professionals across the country!

Professionals like Gladys, a dresser who was unable to work after recovering from multiple, extensive surgical procedures. She received mental health support and financial assistance from the Fund to ease the burden of paying her bills.

Your donation today will allow us to help even more community members like Gladys! Please stand with us and make your gift before the February 13 deadline.

Thank you for your continued dedication and commitment!

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