Arts in Service of Community

Invest in powerful arts learning for all young people.

Your gift ensures that Arts Corps programs reach youth with the least access to high-quality arts education.

Fill out the form below to make a one-time gift or deepen your impact and become part of our monthly donors, the Culture Club. In order to sign up for the Culture Club, simply pick “recurring” when making your donation.

You can also make a gift by calling (206) 569-8175 or send your donation by mail to Arts Corps, 4408 Delridge Way SW #110, Seattle, WA 98106. Please make checks payable to “Arts Corps”.

Arts Corps is of course about giving children and youth the skills to create, to express themselves. But it’s so much more than that. Arts Corps is about building community, creating delight, and working for justice. All of that is what makes Arts Corps so valuable and so wonderful.

FAQ

Other Donation Options

Workplace Giving and Matching

Workplace giving and matching through your employer’s workplace giving program are some of the easiest ways to give to Arts Corps. These programs allow you to designate any donation level to be automatically deducted from your payroll. Many companies also offer matching contributions for charitable donations. If Arts Corps is not listed in your company’s list of charitable organizations, you can usually write in Arts Corps (Nonprofit Tax ID# 91-2044679). Ask your company’s human resources department for more information or contact our development staff.

Class Sponsorship Opportunities

Class sponsorship opportunities are available for donors, groups or businesses contributing $5,000 or more annually. This is a wonderful opportunity for donors to witness the direct impact of their investment on a particular class over a school year. Class sponsors will be invited to a special classroom site visit and all class performances/showcases. For more information on class sponsorship opportunities, please contact our development staff.

Stock Donations

Stock donations are gifts of appreciated stock that can provide tax savings at the time of your donation to Arts Corps. You can avoid a capital gains tax on the appreciated portion of the gift, so many people find that they’re able to make a larger gift by using appreciated securities instead of cash. For more information on stock donations, please contact our development staff.

Estate Planning and Bequests

Estate planning and bequests offer ways to leave a legacy of powerful learning for the future of our children and grandchildren. There are many ways to give from your estate, including naming Arts Corps as a beneficiary in your will, retirement plan or life insurance. Please contact Arts Corps’ development staff for more information on estate planning options.

In-Kind Giving

At Arts Corps, we are always in need of donated art supplies, food, and in-kind printing and design services. Please contact Arts Corps’ development staff for a list of current in-kind needs.

Volunteering

Arts Corps holds several fundraising events throughout the year where we need volunteer power! Please see our Volunteer page for opportunities and to become part of our volunteer base.
