Project Description

With support from the California Arts Council, A Reason to Survive (ARTS) will hold a full-day workshop for board members and senior staff on the principals and practices of a Full Cost Budget. This deep dive into the full cost of non-profit operations, what is currently un- and underfunded, and how to talk to funders about what ARTS really needs to do its work will greatly enhance the ability of leadership to ensure a financially stable organization well into the future.

Organization Summary

A Reason To Survive (ARTS) offers arts programming and creative workforce opportunities for youth and young adults (ages 8-24) living the south county region of San Diego. Through our program initiatives – Community ARTS, ARTS 4 Justice, ARTS On Campus, and ARTS @ Work — young people gain exposure to a range of artistic disciplines (visual arts, media arts, music, and industrial arts in our Maker Workshop), while deepening their social-emotional development through meaningful relationships and mentorship provided by teaching artists and ARTS staff. Through our innovative Community of Care model, we integrate social-emotional supports into our program / curricula design and into the overall design of learning spaces, exhibitions, and performances at the ARTS Center.
