Reconnecting with the Magic of Live Theatre
Dec 19 all-day
online with Asheville Community Theatre
“I was very fortunate to see Clue on opening night. It was the first show since the pandemic. I think a lot of people in the audience cried when she announced that. I know we did! So glad to heave theater back. So glad to have Asheville Community Theatre back!!!” – C. Somervill, review on Google

On October 15th, 2021, something magical happened at 35 East Walnut Street. For the first time since March 2020, the magic of live theatre returned to ACT, as once again audience members, technicians, and performers raised the curtain on a nearly sold-out show. Laughter and applause filled our theatre again, and we all feel brighter for it.

How was this possible? YOU! Your support of theatre for and by the community is what makes the arts come alive at ACT. 

How can you help keep the magic alive in 2022? You can make a gift to support the education programs that will welcome thousands of students next year! You can make a gift to support the development of new plays by local playwrights! You can make a gift to support community members expressing their creativity and creating live works of art that explore different world views!

All this with one gift! Thank you for keeping theatre alive in Asheville for the past year. If you can, please consider supporting YOUR community theatre this year.

Wine and Wolves! Donate to Full Moon Farm Wolf Sanctuary
Dec 19 all-day
online w/ Full Moon Farm

Full Moon Farm is an organization dedicated to the well being of the wolfdog (wolf hybrid). Situated on 17 beautiful mountain acres in Black Mountain, NC, we operate as a federally recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization for abused and refused wolfdogs who find themselves in need of love, shelter, and care through no fault of their own.

Full Moon Farm provides a safe haven for animals that cannot be placed into homes for the rest of their lives.  Our rescued wolfdogs come from animal control agencies, closed breeding situations and occasionally, an owner in crisis.  We evaluate each animal upon intake and work with them at their level of comfort.

Some animals are “hands off” and we respect their choice, as well as that of the animals that crave human interaction.  Our goal is to enrich the lives of the residents, allowing them to reach their highest potential.  Your support by donation or sponsorship makes our task possible.

Though they may be abused or neglected, homeless because of death or divorce, they are all God’s Creatures and worthy of a lifetime of respect. We are here to serve them.

  • Nancy Brown

It’s Memorable, Fast, and Easy! Also, 15% of your purchase will directly be applied to Full Moon Farm, not only will mom be getting great wines, but you will also be supporting a great cause.

Use code GBFULLMOON19 at checkout to donate 15% to Full Moon Farm.

GivingTuesday with Homeward Bound
Dec 20 all-day

Giving Tuesday 2021 is only two weeks away. This year, every dollar you donate on Giving Tuesday will be matched up to $50,000.

Let me tell you about Zach.

When Zach was 23 he was involved in a horrific car crash. He sustained a traumatic brain injury, severed his spinal cord, and was paralyzed from the neck down. Along with tremendous pain came addiction to prescription pain-killers, depression and anxiety. Eventually Zach lost his job, his marriage, and soon after he was homeless.

$27 a day will provide housing and case management support for one person for a year. Your Giving Tuesday donation to Homeward Bound will help folks like Zach get into their own homes this holiday season.

Here’s how you can best prepare to help folks like Zach this year:

 

Mark your calendar. Giving Tuesday is two weeks from today, on November 30, 2021.

 

Give! Now through December 31, 2021, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000 as part of our Creating Hope and Homes Matching Gift Challenge! 

 

Spread the word! Encourage friends, family, and colleagues to join you in Giving Tuesday 2021. Share on social media what our mission means to you, and tag us on Facebook [@homewardboundwnc] or Instagram [@homeward_bound_wnc] so we can share it!

The Asheville Art Museum is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization supported by your generous contributions. As our Fall Annual Fund wraps up at the end of the year, we ask you to join us in our vision: to transform lives through art.

If you have been positively impacted by the Museum’s exhibitions and/or programming, show your appreciation through a gift to the Annual Fund. A gift of any amount is immensely appreciated and allows us to continue to provide meaningful art, education, and experiences to the people of Western North Carolina and the many visitors to our region.

Wine and Wolves! Donate to Full Moon Farm Wolf Sanctuary
Dec 22 all-day
online w/ Full Moon Farm

Full Moon Farm is an organization dedicated to the well being of the wolfdog (wolf hybrid). Situated on 17 beautiful mountain acres in Black Mountain, NC, we operate as a federally recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization for abused and refused wolfdogs who find themselves in need of love, shelter, and care through no fault of their own.

Full Moon Farm provides a safe haven for animals that cannot be placed into homes for the rest of their lives.  Our rescued wolfdogs come from animal control agencies, closed breeding situations and occasionally, an owner in crisis.  We evaluate each animal upon intake and work with them at their level of comfort.

Some animals are “hands off” and we respect their choice, as well as that of the animals that crave human interaction.  Our goal is to enrich the lives of the residents, allowing them to reach their highest potential.  Your support by donation or sponsorship makes our task possible.

Though they may be abused or neglected, homeless because of death or divorce, they are all God’s Creatures and worthy of a lifetime of respect. We are here to serve them.
