Why Donate?
Many of you may not know that house concert hosts do not receive funds from the donations received at the door. 100% of these go to the artists.
In order to continue this series in a sustainable way, for those of you would like to support our series financially and are able to, I have set up this donation page where you can contribute any amount securely via paypal or credit card of your choice using the button below.
If you would prefer to send a check (as paypal does charge me a small fee), just let me know and I can email you our mailing address.
ANYONE can contribute a testimonial!
If you cannot donate at this time ~ or in addition to donating them ~ you can also contribute by emailing a testimonial to abbiew@froggie.com or a story or art work or poem about how you feel our concert series has affected you personally as an audience member or musician, how you see it enrich the community, memories of a show here, etc. I will check with you before using any of your comments in any way.
What will these funds be used for?
Ongoing expenses (food/printing/internet/website/piano tuning … etc)
After running this series for over 10 years, we have discovered that we spend about $50 in food & $10 in printing (Poster for doors & walls) per show / Website hosting plan (I maintain it) over $100 yr / High speed internet for streaming / Terabyte drives for archiving video of the shows / Extra slip and fall insurance for our home / Piano tuning ($100-$200 yr) depending on how many artists come through / membership for Folk Alliance International. Through this organization, I have coverage for ASCAP & BMI fees.
THANK YOU for your support !!
