PLEASE SAVE MALIBU'S ARTIFAC TREE!
Tax deductible
Kindness Is Contageous, Please Donate! Help Save Malibu's Artifac Tree!
The Artifac Tree has existed as a charity in Malibu for over 40 years helping all who enter its doors, never once asking for community help. They've received no financial support from the city, yet raised and donated back hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of services into Malibu over these years.
Our Artifac Tree has been evicted, time is quickly running out and they need us. It's our turn to help our beloved Artifac Tree survive and thrive for a Malibu that has changed - but whose heart is still filled with compassion towards those who have less.
The needs of the Artifac moving forward are: relocation - staying in Malibu or close (possibly Agoura Hills area), moving costs, storage unit fees, truck rentals, higher lease costs - including lease deposits, facitilty improvements, legal and accounting counsel, utility transfers, etc.
The amount of money generated by kind-hearted patrons of the Artifac Tree will determine the next step! We can create tremendous good - a new, organized, updated Artifac Tree, if we put our hearts and donations together.
Recently, the Malibu Times ran a story and nearly every homeless person interviewed said the Artifac Tree was the one entity that helped them get back on their feet, surpassing every government agency and nonprofit they encountered in almost every respect.
Malibu, a town considered to have great wealth in the world, has an obligation to open our hearts, hands and our donations to help this nonprofit continue their outreach work that only they provide for our area. Every size donation is appreciated and is tax-deductible.
Thank you for your generous help! Let’s create a Malibu to be proud of.
