We’re not even three months into 2024, and already we’ve been blown away with Katy Martin as our new President of Renew the Arts. Since her appointment in January, Katy has been diligent in meeting with hosts, booking Porchlight events, and working with the team to organize all of our systems. Her passion for this work, her administrative gifts, and her strong interpersonal skills are positioning Renew the Arts for success.
The best part? Her efforts have already inspired one of our board members to pledge a matching donation for any new recurring pledges in 2024 up to a total of $10,000 out of an abundance of confidence in how things are moving forward. How exciting is that?!
This means anyone who starts a new monthly donation to support Renew the Arts of $10 a month or more will be matched dollar for dollar (up to a total of $10,000) for the remainder of 2024! Thanks to this generous donor, your recurring donation will have double the impact for the rest of this year. If you are able and willing, your participation in regular monthly giving to RTA will accelerate our growth in helping equip others to become art patrons through conversations on the podcast, providing practical hospitality opportunities through Porchlight, and modeling patronage through project sponsorships.
Is this something you’d be willing to do at this stage in our growth? If so, please go visit our campaign page. Thank you for your prayers and continued support.
Cheers!
Justus Stout
Board Chairman
Renew the Arts
