We know there are a lot of worthy causes you care about and may be supporting this year. We're proud that this community stands up to help create a better future for all. Giving through CHAW, starting on #GivingTuesday and going through the end of the year, means supporting creativity, community, and conversation. It means sustaining the inclusive, joyful place our founders dreamed up almost 50 years ago, and that has evolved, grown, and thrived thanks to YOU.
Our goal is to reach 195 donors before December 31.
Your gift will pass through ➡️CHAW ➡️to move the needle on the issues you care about. A donation of any size provides CHAW with more resources to help create a better future for our students and the communities they are a part of. Learn what you can #GiveThrough to support ⬇️

You did it! Thanks to your amazing support, we're at nearly 70% of our goal. We promised a special message from one of our most beloved CHAW family members once we hit this mark, and we hope you love it as much as we do. Yep, it's Ms. Leslie!! Many of you may know and miss her here in DC (we sure do!), but we hope this video message helps bring her wisdom and CHAWsomeness close to you as we close out the year.
If Ms. Leslie's message resonates with you, please don't forget to SHARE this video and campaign with your friends. We are so close to hitting our goal, and we can do it--with YOUR help. It really makes a huge difference when you share the campaign and tell your friends why the arts matter to you, this year especially. THANK YOU for being part of our CHAW community!1443 days ago by Hannah Jacobson Blumenfeld
...and we know you're going to want to see this one! It's from a very special member of the CHAW family, currently living in Colombia. Let us know any guesses on social media, and please share the campaign with friends and neighbors--we can't wait to share this video message and we're just a few donors away!
Happy Saturday!
1445 days ago by Hannah Jacobson BlumenfeldHi CHAW Friends,
We've been thinking a lot about our CHAW community all over the world, and wanted to share some of their greetings with you. So over the next week as we wind down this year, you'll find video messages from some of our most beloved CHAW family members--exclusively on this page! So make sure to watch this space, and please, if you are able, share the campaign! It makes such a real difference, and we appreciate you.
First up on video...CHAWsome teaching artist Carolina Mayorga! View her message here:
Wherever you are and whatever you celebrate, we hope you have some time coming up to log off and lean into your creative selves (yes, cookie-making totally counts!). Happy holidays, and can't wait to share more messages soon!
Thank you SO MUCH for the amazing outpouring of support this #GivingThroughsDay! Thanks to you, we are rounding the bend on $10,000, and we know we can get there with your help: if you can, please consider sharing the campaign just one more time tonight. You make all the difference and we are so very thankful that you are part of our CHAW community! <31469 days ago by Hannah Jacobson Blumenfeld
Our CHAWsome Board got together to share what they #GiveThrough when they give to CHAW, and the answers are so inspiring. What do YOU give to when you #GiveThrough CHAW? Snap a photo, send us a message, or post on social media to share your giving story, and make sure to tag us @CHAWinDC, #GivingThroughsday!
YOU make every bit of this possible, and we are so thankful!
