Independent Arts are excited to be taking on the Big Give Christmas Challenge this year, aiming to raise £4,000 in just seven days.
If Independent Arts hit their target, all donations will be doubled by the Big Give champion funder Sharegift, and they will receive £8,000.
Every pound donated through BigGive.org will be matched, so one donation makes twice the difference.
From 3rd to 10th December 2024, Independent Arts will be campaigning to raise their target, and you can help by making a donation, sharing their social media posts, telling your friends and family and help spread the word.
High quality arts-based activities
Children and older people are among the most vulnerable on the Isle of Wight, especially at Christmas.
Independent Arts offer high quality arts-based activities for those who may be lonely or isolated, and provide the opportunity to make friends, a warm space, a listening ear, and get any extra support or signposting they might need.
Their focus is on reducing isolation and improving the wellbeing of Islanders of all ages.
Private view of new exhibition of works
And don’t forget the Independent Arts private view of their new exhibition of works created in care homes across the Island.
Take place between 6pm and 9pm on Tuesday 3rd December. All are invited to join the Independent Arts team for a drinks reception and a chance to make a donation to their campaign, helping them to support hundreds of people across the Island.
