It’s a joy to us that T. Swift stays consistent and relevant for our holiday ask three years running. She’s on an eras tour, and honestly, so are we: we’re looking back and thinking about FFT’s future.

(And the way Taylor is stimulating the economy? With your help, this holiday season, we’re hoping to stimulate the FFT economy too. )

In previous asks, we’ve been upfront that individual giving has still not returned to pre-pandemic levels and we’ve needed help more than ever to create a sustainable pathway to our future. We’re incredibly grateful for the increased foundational support that helpeded us return to production but we’re still missing our beloved individual donations, especially the $10’s, $25’s, and $50’s that FFT was built on.

If you think philanthropy is not for you, it is at FFT.

Your gift of any size makes you a contributing donor to our annual fund. On this very same webpage, you have the opportunity to give us $20.24 and give yourself the gift of calling yourself a donor (we know you’ll rock philanthropy in style.)

Of course, if you are in a position to give big(ger), please do. We’ve got a shiny new five-year-dreams we’d love to share with you featuring only the finest of expensive goals like “salary” and “space” and “union workplace.” In sincerity, continuing to put our money where mouth is when it comes to the wellbeing and compensation of our staff and artists is paramount to us. We need to grow our budget in these five years by $80,000 to meet these goals. We hope that starts with you today.

Our ask this year? Support the future of FFT’s art, artists, and staff by making a gift today.

$2024 if you can, $202.40 if that’s more your vibe, or $20.24 if you think this ask isn’t for you (it is).
