#GivingTuesday- May 5, 2020
Inspire through the Arts
The Richland Academy of the Arts may be temporarily closed, but our arts and education programs are still alive!
Your gift today will allow us to use the arts to inspire others and give hope during this time of uncertainty, and prepare to welcome you back as we all look forward to the future, together.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Richland County Foundation Board of Trustees will relaunch the Richland Gives giving platform Tuesday, April 14 to help nonprofits raise operating revenue during the COVID-19 pandemic.
During this special edition of Richland Gives, donors only will be assessed a credit card fee of 2.99% plus .30 cents per transaction.
May 5 will be a global day of giving organized by the #GivingTuesday organization to help during the COVID-19 pandemic.
A global threat like COVID-19 affects more than just the infected. It's a time to come together to drive a spike of generosity, citizen engagement, business and philanthropy activation, and support for our community and nonprofits in Richland County.
EXCELLENCE IN THE ARTS
It is our belief that creativity exists in everyone. Our mission is to provide a place where anyone can explore the artist within.
Whether you are a parent looking to enrich your child's experience in the arts, or an adult looking to engage in an arts community, our team at Richland Academy of the Arts will provide you with exciting opportunities. For over 28 years, we have nurtured local creative talent through an environment of safety, respect, learning, and imagination.
Richland Academy of the Arts is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization dedicated to education with a focus on the arts. We serve Richland County, Ohio, and the surrounding communities.

There are many ways to support Richland Academy of the Arts and our students. First and foremost, come to our events! Watch the dance, hear the music, see the art, be an audience member—enrich your life and celebrate with us our students’ achievements.
Once you’ve experienced the art and vitality we have to offer, your financial support will make sure that these experiences continue and expand to new students.
100% of our SUPER Board of Directors have donated totaling $1,500 and would like to challenge our families and staff to match their gift to help us reach our goal.
Be a SUPERHERO and give between November 1st and December 3rd! Help us continue this positive growth by supporting Richland Academy of the Arts Annual Campaign by donating during Richland Gives, the one time a year where all communities come together to support non-profit organizations.
WHERE YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Donations made to the Richland Academy of the Arts Annual Fund are a great way to make a difference and will be used where we need them the most!
With your Support our efforts are being realized as we have seen growth over fiscal year 2019. Last year's campaign was a SUPER Success raising $22,673.80! Your support helped purchase scripts for the Little Black Box Theatre; a TV for the Academy Lounge; an outside music wall and interactive sidewalk; sponsored free classes for the RAA Big Band; and provided Tap Workshops.
Richland Academy offers a variety of financial support options for students. While some of our scholarships are awarded merit based, most of our scholarships are need based. This is where donations made to The Richland Academy of the Arts Tuition Assistance Fund are important.
We would be happy to apply your donation to wherever you feel it will make the biggest impact!
