SUPPORT THE ARTS

AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMUNITY

When you give a gift to Culture Works, you are supporting more than one nonprofit organization. Your gift, combined with the gifts of others, provides us with the resources we need to empower multiple organizations, programs, and initiatives that enrich our lives and enhance the Dayton Region for us all. With your continued support, we can continue to strengthen our community’s creative spirit through grantmaking, education, outreach, and advocacy.

Please note that PayPal is easier to use on mobile devices. You can use all platforms to give a gift via credit card or debit card.

Gifts may also be mailed to our office, or you may call us to discuss additional giving opportunities. Please make all checks payable to:

LEADERSHIP GIVING

A contribution to Culture Works is more than an investment in arts and culture; it is an investment in the future of our neighborhoods, cities, and the Dayton Region. We all benefit from a thriving arts community, and our region is fortunate to have an amazing number and variety of arts organizations and performance groups. As a member of one of our Leadership Circles, your generosity helps us build appreciation of, participation in, and support for our region’s unique cultural community.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT AND THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE ARTS

For nearly 50 years, workplaces throughout the Dayton Region have mobilized on behalf of our local artistic and cultural institutions by participating in the annual Campaign for the Arts. By giving their employees the ability to support Culture Works through payroll deduction, they empower their staffs to make larger gifts by having them spread out over the course of multiple paychecks. Additionally, many organizations encourage their employees to embrace their creative side during the Campaign, bringing artists, musicians, and interactive experiences into their places of business to educate and engage their personnel.

WORKPLACE GIVING TOOLBOX

Thank you for coordinating the Culture Works Campaign for the Arts at your organization or company! It is through the hard work and dedication of our Workplace Coordinators that the campaign is so successful each year. Last year, over half of the funds we provided to local Arts Organizations came directly from Workplace Giving efforts.

Below are some helpful resources for your use as a Coordinator during your organization’s campaign:

PLANNED GIVING

Gifts of cash are not the only way to support Culture Works. Based on your personal situation, it may make sense to make a different type of gift, such as:

Gifts of Stock
IRA Required Minimum Distributions
Gift Annuities
Wills and Bequests

A planned gift to Culture Works gives us the resources we need to support our community’s creative spirit well into the future. Planned gifts can provide immediate benefits to the donor and give Culture Works a strong foundation to provide broad support to cultural and artistic programs, venues, and opportunities throughout the years. Your gift will be an enduring donation that will enrich the arts for years to come.
