Be part of the global movement of generosity on #GivingTuesday
Dec. 1, 2020
ajusticenetwork and Splinter Dance are thrilled to participate in #GivingTuesday – a global movement of generosity.
Aligning with our mission to affect positive social change in the world, #GivingTuesday is an opportunity for people around the world to stand together in unity—to use their individual power of generosity to remain connected and heal.
We believe in the power of the arts to inspire :
Hope – Connection – Progress – Healing – Change
Join us this year on #GivingTuesday & tap into generosity to find a way to support a cause you believe in. It’s not about how MUCH you give, but the practice of generosity and the spirit of being part of a unified community geared toward social change.
There are so many ways you can show generosity during #GivingTuesday –whether it’s helping a neighbor, advocating for an issue, sharing a skill, or giving to causes, every act of generosity counts.
Over the next few weeks, we’ll give some suggestions of the various ways you can give – to our organization, or any organization you stand behind!
In addition to our desire to be part of a global movement with the virtue of generosity at its core, we’ve also set a goal of 5k for this year’s campaign and we are grateful for every gift, big or small, that helps us reach that goal!
As you know, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the arts and non-profits are one, among so many, businesses that are suffering. Stages are closed, live performances canceled, and rehearsal spaces adjust to the current restrictions of the city government.
Despite all this, we are still meeting via Zoom and working to create new pieces during this time, and plan to have new offerings whenever stages open back up. Our goal of 5k will help us cover the company’s operating costs and studio space (when we can safely meet in small groups, in person) for the year, and 15% of all discretionary donations will be allocated to ajn’s newest project, Open to Awakening, to premier in 2021!
Check out this incredible dance annual publication, created by Rosie Gaynor. It’s chock-full of dance gems; insights, photos, articles and stats on Seattle’s vibrant and diverse dance community! WE LOVE IT! Thank you for including us – we’re honored to be a part of this community of artists!
Splinter is proud to be a part of this event next week! We’ll be performing two pieces at “Through Our Eyes” – an event that will address violence “specifically from the perspectives of the Asian community and shed light on the issues that Asians face, the barriers and challenges facing Asian communities in addressing/discussing/seeking help regarding forms of violence and how we move forward as a community.”
