AUGUST 2023 IAA UPDATE!
Thank you all for your continued support of IAA! We have made it through these last few years with the help of 2 PPP loans, an SBA loan, and your generous contributions! We are eternally grateful. Though the world keeps spinning and all seems back to normal, IAA like many small businesses is still reeling from the losses of the pandemic. With increased debt and our enrollment still not fully recovered we once again are asking for your help. Cash flow is always our biggest issue and the lull in programming between Summer and Fall is the toughest. Please donate if you can, share this post, and tell your friends, it all helps! We appreciate it so much!
IAA is my life and my passion. We have been providing life changing education in the arts for the past 10 years, but these last few years have really taken their toll. With Covid upending our world we have been unable to go into our school partners to provide programming and our in person programming has seen a reduction in registration as well. Parents are unsure, which we understand. We have been able to stay open so far with the help of two PPP loans and the consistent registrations of our loyal families, but that funding has run out. I am asking for any help you can provide to help us stay open to continue to provide vital programming for our kids. They need us now more than ever. We provide a safe, encouraging, environment where they can be challenged artistically and continue to grow and provide much needed support for them during these extremely stressful and uncertain times. Your support means everything to me, thank you.
