The Mockingbird Foundation

We have a newly designed website! Mbird.org

Last chance to order one of these beautiful posters to commemorate the 2024 new year's run - and of course, a donation to the always excellent and important cause of funding youth music education programs! Orders close tomorrow, January 3 at midnight eastern time. ✨

We're excited to round out 2024 with our New Year's Run tour grants: 4 $1,000 donations to well deserving schools in the New York City area!

Because we are a 501(c)3 non-profit, donations are tax deductible. Thank you for your continued support and have a wonderful Holiday Season!

As you consider your donation, please remember that since the Foundation is entirely run by volunteers, you can be assured that most every penny of every dollar goes directly to benefitting children’s programs nationwide. 🧵

The poster itself can also be ordered through the Mockingbird Store (store.mbird.org/products/new-y…) We are taking orders through January 3rd and all posters ordered between now and then will be fulfilled. 🧵

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday and this year at The Mockingbird Foundation, we look forward to giving back to you. 🧵

We hope you will consider a donation of any size to The Mockingbird Foundation for this year’s #givingtuesday Tuesday. As a thank you, we will be sending out five free posters to the donors who provide the five largest donations today (12/2) through midnight tomorrow (12/3). 🧵

In honor of the upcoming MSG NYE Run, we have designed a unique, limited poster run together with the artist Sadie May. She truly outdid herself! The piece is 24”x18” and is digitally printed on holographic foil stock. 🧵
