Happy #GivingTuesdayNow, All.

We need each other every day of the week. 

When the Giving Tuesday organization reached out to us to join them in today's giving campaign, we were hesitant to commit. So many are struggling to make ends meet, and arts organizations everywhere need support.

But we realized this pandemic affects people's livelihood and it affects organizations we care about —  our community partners and our arts colleagues. #GivingTuesdayNow is an opportunity for people around the world to stand together in unity — to use their individual power of generosity to remain connected. We love that idea.

Would you consider giving today to organizations you support, including Resonance Ensemble? Your gift to Resonance supports paying fees to our artists *this month*, to replace income they are losing from postponed performances. Your gift funds exciting commissions of new and timely music that are already in the works for every concert next season. And your gift ensures that Resonance's mission continues to thrive through this difficult time, so that we can keep giving back to you and our community with relevant art that matters. 

On this day, we ask you show your generosity however you are able. Whether it's by helping your older neighbor get groceries, advocating for a local artist you love, sharing a skill, or giving to your favorite arts organization, every single act of generosity counts right now. You have gifts to give and the world needs you. 

Happy Giving Tuesday, all. (...and happy giving Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, too.) We appreciate you every day of the week. 

With love,
From all of us at Resonance Ensemble
