DONATIONS
Monetary Donations
LYS became a Nebraska based nonprofit on July 1, 2024. While in our first year of operations, we entered a fundraising campaign to raise $785,000 to continue providing quality arts programming for Lincoln's disability community. Funds are necessary to build a stable foundation and invest in our growing future. Within the first six months, we raised $327,000 and have $458,000 left to raise to meet our goal. With your support, we can fill necessary positions, buy new equipment, expand programming and continue to offer the disability community opportunities to accomplish their creative goals, present their work and build community through a shared language of art.
When you Say Yes to Live Yes, you acknowledge our artists’ ideas, talents and creative works are fundamentally valuable and necessary within our local community. Your support for this campaign, no matter the amount, ensures we can continue to provide fine and performing arts instruction for Lincoln’s disability community. From all of us at LYS, thank you. We are beyond grateful for your support!
