Dear SANCA Family & Friends,
Wow! Thank you! We are truly blessed to serve a community that is so loving. Your outpouring of support in response to our campaign to help SANCA and our team of dedicated staff and artists has been huge! See below for some of the messages of support we have received.
We know during this crisis that many are suffering and struggling, many are scared, and many need help. Your generous and kind-hearted contributions help us support our staff and our students who are isolated and need the healthy social support of a circus class. Your support is helping us to build up a series of online circus classes to meet the increasing requests of our students for Circus at Home options. Your generosity also helped us process March payroll without cuts to support our team despite rapidly declining revenues from lost operations.
So far you’ve helped SANCA raise $32,914, so that we can continue to pay our staff and artists who are most vulnerable due to loss of work.
Thank you! From the bottom of my heart, and on behalf of the Board and Staff at SANCA, we are truly grateful and our hearts are filled with love from your actions. We are indebted to you always and pledge to serve our community to the best of our abilities.
If you wish to support SANCA in this time of need, donations can be made at our website. We still have a long way to go to recover. Our losses already equal $130,000 and will grow as long as SANCA’s doors remain closed. Truly: thank you thank you thank you!
With gratitude,
John Tannous
Executive Director
Messages from some of our contributors in response to the COVID-19 crisis:
“We appreciate all you do to inspire kids and adults in circus arts. Let’s keep the magic alive! THANK YOU!!!”
“Please use this donation to support your artists and teachers.”
“[SANCA has] been a solid, positive influence in my kids’ lives. Your acceptance of neurodiversity and gender fluidity have given our family a safe place to be ourselves. As a single mom of a challenging kiddo, you have been a solid support for me too – likely without even knowing it; you’re all so accepting that I’ve never felt I’ve had to justify or explain ourselves or our circumstances. And for that, I’m forever indebted to you and yours.”
“We don’t live in Seattle anymore, but we sure wish we could have taken SANCA with us! We’ll always be cheering from far away.”
“Please use these funds to keep your staff employed during this crisis. My daughter loves her aerial class and I am hoping she can eventually partake in more. She lost her dad last fall and SANCA was one of the few things she was looking forward to resuming as she transitioned back to her normal routine.”
“I look forward to the post-COVID-19 days when SANCA fills Seattle with joy and fun.”
