Ohhhhh we’re (more than) halfway thereeeee at the halfway point of our October 50 for 50 square feet goal!

We are deeply grateful for every gift, connection, and sharing of our story to continue building a strong foundation for Canopy’s future, ensuring there is room for everyone! To learn more about the new studio or to donate, visit linktr.ee/canopystudio

No matter what funding is raised between now and move in date, we will have a new studio! Additional contributions determine how much of the space can be finished and equipped before Canopy opens its new doors. Help us be ready to fly on day 1!

Our goal is to move in debt-free or as close to that as possible.

Taking on a significant loan could mean having less flexibility to fund scholarships, outreach, and other community programs over time.

Why do you give? For Emily, Canopy is place for her, in her 70s, to have started something new to build strength and flexibility with both her body and my mind.

For October, our goal is to find sponsors for 50 square feet of our new space to better support Emily and all of our students to continue to grow.

One square foot is $125. Will you help today? Donate through the link in our profile.

And we know this is a difficult season and not everyone is financially able to give. Please consider sharing Emily’s (or your) story! All donations, no matter the size, make a tremendous difference! We have so much gratitude to all who have given in various ways already - financially, sharing our story, and volunteering, and more. None of what we do could happen without you.

New blog post is up! Read and subscribe through the link in our profile! In the new post, Ann gives an update on where we are with the new building. Donate now through the link in our profile to the capital campaign to raise the last 20% of funds needed to move in debt free!

“I suppose I thought that the same resilience, grit, and stick-to-it-ness that make circus people chase the next trick, (after all, we regularly do things even when they hurt, even when we know we’re going to wake up the next day with a bruise) would somehow magically make the building happen on time”
