It’s Giving Tuesday! Your donation will help our tiny organization (with a huge heart and lots of gumption) increase its capacity for maintaining our programming, and continue with our mission to nurture and support the vitality of downtown Brattleboro through community and economic development.

Programs such as Gallery Walk, Luv Crawl, BrattleBOO and beautification programs like our BLOOM (flowers) and holiday decorating/window displays downtown all come at an extraordinary cost of time and money. We literally can not do this work without you!

Please consider sharing our fundraising page with your networks to keep downtown Brattleboro grounded in community and vitality. And reach out if you would like to become more involved as a volunteer.

THANK YOU for supporting what we do!
