A relationship with the Philadelphia Folksong Society can really make a difference to our community and to the future of the Arts and Education in Pennsylvania.
Supporting the Philadelphia Folksong Society
Donations to the Philadelphia Folksong Society help us to present, sponsor, and promote a wide variety of activities, including programs that are an integral part of many schools and service organizations. Each year, these outreach efforts deliver the educational and social benefits of folk music to more than 10,000 people of diverse, multicultural, and economic backgrounds, including children with special needs.
For years, income from the Philadelphia Folk Festival has totally subsidized these program costs. Unfortunately, the gap between revenue and the cost of maintaining our programs is widening. Like most other organizations devoted to the arts, the Philadelphia Folksong Society is feeling the effects of the nation's economic challenges.
It has become clear that it is no longer prudent to rely solely on a single event as our only significant source of funding. The Society's board is working to find alternate sources of revenue to sustain us now and in the future, but we also need help from individuals, corporations and other organizations who believe that our work is important. As a result, we are asking for your help to maintain and expand our efforts of bringing traditional and folk music to broader audiences.
The benefits of an association with the Philadelphia Folksong Society and the Philadelphia Folk Festival include maintaining and expanding quality artistic and educational programs throughout the Delaware Valley, encouragement and support of volunteerism, and community economic and social growth.
