Save The Dark Roast
Donation protected
Hello music lovers and community supporters,
We need your help! The Dark Roast has been a cherished hub for live music in North Chattanooga, going on 5 years now. However, like many small music venues, we are facing unprecedented challenges that threaten our existence.
The Dark Roast isn't just a place for entertainment; it's a vital part of our community. It's where local bands get their start, where friends gather to enjoy performances, and where new connections are formed over shared love for music.
Despite our best efforts, the financial strain has hit us hard. Due to forces out of our control, things like rent, utilities, maintenance, and staffing costs continue to increase and accumulate, while our revenue streams have dwindled.
Your support can make all the difference. By contributing to this fundraiser, you're not just helping to keep our doors open; you're investing in the heart and soul of our community. Your donation will directly support:
Operating Expenses: Covering rent, utilities, insurance, and other essential costs to keep the venue running.
Support for Artists: Providing fair compensation for performers, ensuring that the music continues to thrive.
Maintenance and Upkeep: Preserving the integrity of our venue, repairs and maintenance, and ensuring a safe and welcoming environment for all.
Every dollar counts, and no contribution is too small. Whether you're a regular patron, a local musician, or someone who values the cultural significance of small music venues, we invite you to join us in this crucial effort.
Even if you're unable to donate, you can still make a difference by spreading the word. Share this fundraiser with your friends, family, and social networks. Together, we can rally our community and ensure that The Dark Roast remains a beacon of music, culture, and connection for years to come.
Thank you for standing with us during this challenging time. Your support means everything to us and to the future of live music in our community.
Cheers,
The Dark Roast Team {The Brads, Zoe, Chandler, Jake and the Invictus Team}
