Give Locally

updated 1/30/23

This list was started from a @valleyartsnewsletter instagram post about giving locally during the COVID lockdown (*see note at bottom of page). It was posted here to make it easier to follow links to these local organizations. Give what you can to help. Support local ♥

This list is expanding to include any arts non-profits in the valley and local artist/maker/creator patreon accounts. It's a work in progress. Want to add to this list? Send me an email.

Local branches of national orgs that you can give to directly:

Local Creatives on Patreon: A sweet affordable way to help support local artists and creators for as little as $1 a month

* from the 6/17/20 instagram post: hi friends, i was inspired to make this list by Jason's video at @attackbearpress (and because i love to make lists). His point is that giving to national organizations is good but there are so many local nonprofit organizations that assist BIPOC that need your support. Our neighbors, our community right here need support. Give local and buy local whenever you can. Donate to them, follow them, boost their reach. This list includes nonprofit orgs in the valley that deal with racism, social justice, immigrant protection, food insecurity, education, healthcare, and more - many issues that disproportionally affect BIPOC communities. Also art/culture orgs that are run by and/or directly support BIPOC artists and communities.
