Dear Community Member,

 

 

Perform 4 Purpose is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that aims to provide youth with the opportunity to experience the arts through skill building and performance opportunities.  We also seek to instill the importance of giving back to the community in our performers by holding fundraising events for local organizations in need. We offer programs such as summer camps, community workshops, music mentor clubs, and fundraising events.  We currently hold music mentor clubs in the Moravia Central School District (Millard Fillmore Elementary and Moravia Middle School) and Union Springs Central School District (Union Springs Middle School). We are honored to have partnered with Auburn Public Theater and Booker T. Washington Community Center to help bring mentor clubs into the Auburn School District (Casey Park Elementary, Genesee Elementary, Seward Elementary, Auburn Junior High School, and Booker T. Washington Community Center).  We also provide students with scholarships to attend these programs, as well as other arts-based programs in the community. In collaboration with other community organizations, such as Majorpalooza, Ignite, NAACP, and Tomato Fest, our performers have participated in events that have raised over $700,000.

Over the past six years, with the help of local businesses and community members, we raised over $50,000 to support Perform 4 Purpose programs at our annual Perform 4 Purpose Gala.  On Friday, October 11, 2019, we will be hosting our 7th Annual Perform 4 Purpose Gala. This fundraising event will feature music by Perform 4 Purpose Performers followed by Parents 4 Purpose, a band of parents following in the footsteps of their talented kids!  It will also include a buffet dinner, a cash bar, a silent auction, raffles, and a wine pull at Springside Inn beginning at 6:30pm. All proceeds from this event will help fund Perform 4 Purpose programs.

We are seeking sponsorships and donations for this fundraiser.  All donations are 100% tax deductible. If you are willing to graciously donate to this event, please fill out the attached form and return to your Gala Committee contact conveniently listed on the attached form.

Thank you for your support, and helping us help the community one performance at a time.

Sincerely,

Perform 4 Purpose Gala Committee
