Original Introduction
Challenges running and funding the Met and a resulting growing debt have led us to possibly closing August 31. We have three goals for this "Save the Met" campaign:
- Raise $50,000 in cash and pledges to cover back rent and immediate expenses.
- Increase the Board of Directors from the current seven to 20 - 25 connected, energetic members.
- Secure new partners for three-year Corporate and Exhibit Sponsorships totaling at least $25,000 annually.
You can help by making a Personal or Business Pledge at the Met, by calling 425-2560, or by using the form below. For info on joining the Board or partnering through a Corporate or Exhibit Sponsorship, please call the same number, or email us. Thank You!
