La Peña Artists & Activists HUB proudly Presents: John Spokes of United States Artists!

 

La Peña and United States Artists invites you to a presentation about USA Projects, an online fundraising platform exclusively for artists, not for profit. We help you fund projects by connecting you with our established community of supporters, while simultaneously engaging your own. 

 

Unlike other artist funding sites, USA Projects provides:
• 1-on-1 support throughout your entire campaign with a member of our team.

• Tax-deductibility for every donation.

• Project support (5% or more) from one of our match funds.

 

Since our inception in December 2010, over $2.6 million dollars have been raised on the site, which boasts a 75% project success rate.


Join USA Director of Development John Spokes, to learn more and answer your questions about how to fund your next project.
