As you review your charitable giving opportunities for the year end, the Franco-American Heritage Center invites you to consider supporting their annual fund drive with a tax deductible contribution in support of the new Lewiston cultural landmark.

As the Center celebrates its’ 8th year as a vibrant state-of-the-art, multi-purpose facility, it continues to depend on the generosity of the community to defray the daily operating expenses. Your contribution to the FAHC 2008-2009 Annual Appeal will provide year-long support for successful operations and enable the center to continue offering exciting and entertaining programs to everyone.

Like other cultural organizations, ticket sales account for only a percentage of the funds needed to operate and to offer programming such as the Midcoast Symphony Orchestra Concerts, Piano Series, La Rencontre (The Gathering), Christmas and seasonal concerts, dance showcases, exhibits, traditional music of many cultures, theme nights with dinner and dancing, and much more.

If you have not yet seen the new and beautiful facility, please consider this an invitation to join us for a tour and visit at your convenience. You will see for yourself that being a part of our support team will indeed become a rewarding and beneficial experience that will help us continue to keep our “welcome to all” an ongoing tradition.

Please join us. Celebrate Lewiston-Auburn cultural life. Make it your own. Your generosity can make a significant difference and would be greatly appreciated.
