Exciting News!!

Exciting News! Commonwealth Center for Change (C3) has received an anonymous 2 to 1 challenge grant of $10,000! This means one generous donor has made a pledge to give one dollar for every two we raise up to $10,000--translating into the opportunity to raise $30,000! This is wonderful news for C3 and will go a long way towards meeting our start up costs, finding our first home and making the C3 vision a reality!

C3 is gaining momentum and generating a great deal of enthusiasm. People throughout our community--nonprofit directors, city officials, educators, artists, activists and community leaders--are extremely excited by the prospect of a shared-space community center that provides stable, affordable event, program and office space for social change nonprofits, individual artists and arts organizations in the Northampton area.

As Northampton Mayor Mary Clare Higgins puts it:

"The Commonwealth Center for Change is a project whose time has come.
It has captured the imagination and support of many people in our
community, and I am convinced that it will make a significant contribution
to our quality of life and economic vibrancy."

If you are excited by the idea of a vibrant local community center committed to helping individuals and communities become stronger, smarter, more creative and more deeply connected, I hope you will join the growing community of C3 Founding Supporters. Make a tax-deductible gift and help us meet the challenge set by our anonymous donor. Your generosity at this early stage will be a crucial part of helping make the C3 vision a reality.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you in advance for your support and I hope to see you soon at a C3 event!

Sincerely,


David Simpson
