One of the benefits of LEAF Membership is that we are connected to a global community of donors who believe in harnessing the power of cultural arts as a lens for cultivating cultural curiosity and bringing greater harmony to our world. Our members continue to inspire us by supporting cultural arts learning experiences for youth locally & globally. As you maneuver through our new normal and decide if, where, and how, you can support we ask that you look in your own back yard. Our local businesses provide job opportunities, join us in partnership and serve our community on a daily basis. We want to highlight the LEAF Business Members that allow us to do what we do, thank them for their support and encourage you to show them love where you can. Some of these businesses are sharing special deals with you, some are feeding/supporting their community as most needed, and some are striving to forge a path through this pandemic. One thing is for sure, like you, they are a part of the LEAF community.
