Great Canadian Giving Challenge 2020
Our world has experienced a huge disruption due to COVID-19 which has affected businesses, communities, families and individuals.
In Ontario, it has been 10 weeks since we were sent into lockdown, and we are all feeling the effects of social distancing and isolation.
Just as we’ve seen our world begin to heal from the effects of pollution, it is time for us to begin the healing process as individuals, families and communities so that we will emerge a more resilient, agile and sustainable society.
Throughout human history, the Arts have defined, connected and united us. Communities and societies that have had a strong cultural foundation have been more resilient, sustainable and vibrant because the Arts help with understanding, communication and expression.
Today we are asking you to support the Visual Arts Centre of Clarington so that we can continue to serve the community and help us all recover from the jarring disruption of COVID-19.
With your support, we will continue to use the Arts as the vehicle for the well-being of the families, individuals and the community who engage with us through our galleries, classes and programs. Most importantly, continued participation in the Arts has been proven to enhance resilience.
Resilient people make resilient communities.
Resilient communities make resilient countries.
Resilient countries make a better world for everyone.
Support the Arts today by supporting the Visual Arts Centre of Clarington. We are pleased to once again take part in the Great Canadian Giving Challenge. Our goal this year is to raise $2,500 to support the ongoing delivery of our programs for the community. For the month of June every $1 donated to the Visual Arts Centre of Clarington through Canadahelps.org will automatically enter us into a draw to win $20,000.
Winning the draw will provide an amazing opportunity for further positive impact in the lives around us and will increase the resilience, agility and sustainability of our local Canadian community.
Please support us today!
