“Gratitude turns what we have into enough.” – Anonymous

by TAO · November 25, 2020

As 2020 draws to a close, TAO would like to reflect on the past year:

When we look back, we see a very, very busy year. Whether COVID-19 and sick family, or lost jobs and revenue, etc., The Artist Outreach and its members addressed countless challenges all across the country as we collectively pursued our common mission to improve our previous approach and evolve into our current avenue of virtual advancement. We are proud to say that we can still fully support our initiatives!

What also strikes us is that we could not have done so without the support and encouragement of so many people – and we mean you! We are blessed with incredibly engaged and active members, who keep our membership vibrant and our organization responsive. We are also grateful for long-term partners and donors, who generously provide us with the financial support and technology resources that enable all of us to have greater impact in the communities we serve. And we are fortunate to collaborate with many members of the broader nonprofit community on a range of issues and opportunities that help us achieve our mission.

Please join us in the celebration of our partners who keep us going!!
