September 20, 2019 Dear Friend and Partner, This past year SAF and its volunteers have welcomed hundreds of newcomers to Seattle by introducing them to Seattle’s past, present and future through the lens of architecture. Our tours, talks, exhibits, events and workshops for youth and families help people feel more connected to their changing city. Our focus has always been, and will continue to be on building an increased awareness of how architecture and design impacts our health, well-being, and the way we move through the city.
Each year, thanks to your support and our volunteers, we find innovative ways to fulfill our mission. This past year, we launched three new tours – Federal Ave., Denny Triangle, and Madrona – which offer new insight into these rapidly changing communities. And very soon, we’ll be unveiling a mobile tour app allowing us to share Seattle’s architectural heritage with more people than ever before. We are also glad to report growth in our youth and family programs, which included 2 new summer camp sites and full weekend workshops. These programs would simply not be possible without your support.
We invite you to become a member or sponsor in 2020 and help us continue to engage the public in educational programs that inspire them to get involved in shaping our city. Aside from providing invaluable support to SAF, sponsorship perks include free and discounted access to programs, visibility among the wider AEC community and general public and much more. This year, we’ve also added new perks at all support levels, like VIP passes which can be used for higher value events like our popular Design Soiree series.
Thank you in advance for considering. We look forward to your participation and hope to count you as a partner in helping us Shape Seattle!
Sincerely,
Casey Schuchart Stacy Segal Board President Executive Director P.S. All corporate donors who make a commitment to support SAF by Dec. 31, 2019, will be invited to an exclusive donor reception to take place in the New Year – we look forward to seeing you there and will share details soon!
