MuseumNext's Slice for Smithsonian
Can you donate $5 to send a slice of pizza to Smithsonian workers affected by the Shutdown?
I want to show support with workers at the Smithsonian by making a gesture to put a smile on their faces at this difficult time.
The Federal shutdown has left many furloughed from work, and some essential staff working without pay.
We will organize a giant Pizza order to deliver those working a lunch on us, demonstrating that they have the support of the global museum community and that we wish to do something to help.
How will this make a difference?
The Federal Government Shutdown is creating genuine hardship for those who work for these institutions.
While I wish we could do more, by donating to send a slice to a colleague at Smithsonian you are taking action to show those working during the Shutdown that they have our support.
Who's behind this?
MuseumNext is a global community of grass roots museum professionals. Our community have been looking for a way to show solidarity with our colleagues suffering because of the shutdown.
