Donate to Wise Fool
Together, Wise Fool and our supporters are making a difference in our community. Become part of something important; donate to Wise Fool today.
While Wise Fool accepts donations all year round, the “Individual Giving Campaign” we run from September through December is critical - it pays the bills, keeps the lights on in our studio, and enables us to run our many programs. Wise Fool needs your support to keep the magic alive!
Why support Wise Fool? Because our approach to social change through the arts works.
We have been honored with awards for both our artistic excellence and our community impact (see our about page). However the real proof of our success lies not in these awards, or rising demand for our services, or repeat funding. We know that our programs change lives and strengthen communities because those we serve tell us so.
“We count ourselves fortunate to have talented, socially conscious people like you in our community.” – Billie Blair, past president, Santa Fe Community Foundation
“Nothing has boosted [my daughter’s] self-confidence the way her three days at Wise Fool did.” – Parent of Winter Camp Participant
“I grew up as the last kid picked for any gym team and experienced physical activity as something I could not do. Through Wise Fool and BUST I discovered that I could derive great joy from using my body and that anything I can’t do is something I can learn and train myself to do. This change has empowered me in all areas of my life.” – BUST and Adult Classes Participant
"Among the thousands of acts I've booked and presented since 1997, Wise Fool has to be in the top handful, based on audience satisfaction and presenter experience alike." - Bob Redmond, Bumbershoot Festival
“[The Wise Fool staff’s] gentle belief in all the kids' abilities resulted in all the kids being able to overcome their own personal challenges… and by the end the kids were all so incredibly proud of what they'd achieved.” – Parent of Summer Camp Youth
