Message from our Mary Jo Ernst, Fundraising Director:
Happy New Year’s urban sketchers from snowy west Michigan. As the fundraising director for Urban Sketchers international, I am happy to announce that we had a very successful Giving Tuesday fundraiser. I want to thank everyone who donated, commented and shared to make this fundraiser successful.
We have raised over $10,000. Our group has just exploded over the last couple of years. With that growth, also comes the need for more outreach. So this money will be used to expand more of our programs and also continue on with our operating costs.
On behalf of the entire Executive Board, I want to wish you a Happy New Year filled with peace, good health, prosperity, adventure and creativity! Thank you.
