On March 4th, 2020 Harmony Werks Inc filed to become a registered 501 (c)(3) non profit with this as our guiding principle:

"Our purpose is to engage in charitable aid, the promotion and advancement of the performing and visual arts, and to support the community of creative artists and their works. The means of providing such aid, promotion and advancement includes (but is not limited to) the creation, organization and execution of a community theatre."

Starting this August we have committed to collaborate with The Pear Theatre in Mountain View to produce a monthly live cabaret show (through May of 2023), we have continued to produce Hamiltunes sing-a-long events, outdoor Open Mic events at Music Village, plus we have maintained the San Jose Pop Up Choir with Pop Up events each month and we will be celebrating its seven year anniversary on September 15th. We are a key sponsor of the San Jose International Short Film Festival (now in its 14th year) and are planning even more events as covid restrictions have eased and we are crafting new ways to maintain everyone's safety.

In case you are wondering, this is what we call - a great start.

Harmony Werks Inc. is growing organically and while we have not really raised funds just for our own programs, we have made significant donations to the International Rescue Committee, World Central Kitchen, Second Harvest and other local charities and will continue to do so.

WE ARE ASKING FOR YOUR HELP

Now we are asking for your help, as we grow we are also paying for equipment and fees to keep everything going on a monthly basis - we are committed to continuing everything that we do now and more (Christmas in the Park, short film projects, art projects, etc.) but a small donation from you, either one time or continuing would make a significant difference in what we are doing and what we have planned for the future.

Can you support our work with a donation to help keep us going? We are incredibly appreciative of all you have already given and the support that we have received to date - but we are launching a fundraising goal of $9,500 by year's end.

Your donation will help us with our programs: San Jose Pop Up Choir, Pear Pressure Cabaret Show, Open Mic Events and more. Specifically your donations will go towards upgrading some equipment, from individual microphones, new mixers and speakers, to allowing us to promote our events, help offset costs and even buy pizza during rehearsals.

All our events are run by volunteers, most of our events are free and open to the public and we want to continue to keep it that way.

We hope you can help, but if a donation is out of the question please just share this info and together we can keep it going.

Best,

Sinohui Hinojosa
