ARISE Detroit! is not in the business of holding fundraisers – not because we don’t need the money but because our primary focus has always been serving the residents and neighborhoods of Detroit.
But when we were approached by Olympia Entertainment, in partnership with GreeningDetroit.com (not be confused with the Greening of Detroit), we thought it was a great opportunity to raise money and to offer our supporters a great holiday experience for the family.
This is why we are inviting you to purchase a discounted ticket to see the Thursday, Dec. 18, Olympia Entertainment production of Cirque Dreams Holidaze, an acrobatic and musical extravaganza and a great family outing opportunity. By using the promo code, ARISE (see info attached) at www.olympiaentertainment.com/ARISEDetroit, you will be able to purchase what normally would be a $60 ticket for only $37.
In addition, ARISE Detroit! is offering two free movie passes to Detroit’s Bel Air Theatre for those who purchase tickets for the Fox show – as long as quantities last.
The Fox Theatre will have a green décor for the event, in the promotion of green friendly practices, and people are encouraged to wear green clothing to the event.
Money raised will be used for marketing, promotion and resource procurement on behalf of the hundreds of neighborhood groups that are part of the ARISE Detroit! family. John Carlos, the CEO of GreeningDetroit.com, marketing group that supports environmentally friendly business and initiatives, offered this explanation for the selection of ARISE Detroit:
“GreeningDetroit.com chose Arise! Detroit as the recipient of the Olympia Entertainment fundraiser opportunity after Anna Dravland contacted us in regards to her inspirational idea, “I Dream of a Green Detroit” as an event to raise funds for a non-profit that provides support for the city. Though Greeningdetroit.com represents over 100 non-profit organizations as well as government, educational, and for profit organizations on site and the contacts we reach are in the thousands, when we heard her idea, the decision of funding ARISE Detroit! was a simple one.”
“The work of ARISE Detroit! encompasses educational workshops, collaboration with other non-profits, and promotes community responsibility in practical, strategic, and empowering ways. It is our hope that this event brings not just much needed funding, but well deserved awareness and excitement for the organization.”
We hope to see you there and Happy Holidays from ARISE Detroit!
