If you haven't, we're just 10 days away from the very last day of 2021, and we have less than 10% to go to reach our $200,000 annual fundraising goal! We hope you'll be as inspired by these 10 reasons to help WAM reach its $200,000 contribution goal as we are:
10) "I’m really excited, inspired and empowered. The instructor is so incredibly nice and extremely knowledgeable. This was just what I needed!" - WAM student in Intro to Performance with Ableton
9) "You made me feel connected to a larger community of women in recording, makes me feel less alone." - WAMCon virtual Nashville
8) "WAM has been a true game changer for me. It has provided me with a rockstar community of women and gender nonconforming friends that truly inspire me and want to help elevate my artistry. WAM’s amazing network and connections have also allowed me access to spaces that have opened my perspective on what is possible for me in the music industry." - WAM Fall 2021 intern
7) "I want to say I came into WAM with no music experience and I learned so much over my time at WAM and now I think I found my new passion!" - Girls on the Mic student
6) "The focus on women in the business is found nowhere else. It's so inspirational to see women who have succeeded/are succeeding." - WAMCon virtual LA participant
5) "Audio-focused events don't always feel welcoming to women and gender-nonconforming folks. It's important to have a space where we can learn in a safe environment and connect with others like us." - WAMCon virtual LA participant
4) “Being an intern at Women’s Audio Mission this summer has been everything I needed and more. Between professional development workshops and panels, interning in a virtual classroom, and the real, honest conversations with my team, WAM has given me the resources and connections I need to show up in my professional life with confidence and curiosity. This cohort of interns feels like family. It’s easily one of the highlights of my life." - WAM Fall 2021 intern
3) "I appreciate everyone's positivity because this space really makes me feel safe because the outside world can be really scary; but everyone here is just so nice and it's hard to find people like that these days." - Girls on the Mic student
2) "Often I feel discouraged in other larger organizations with tons of men. This was my first WAM event and I really appreciate the openness and supportive community. There are a lot of random resources out on the internet but WAM helps focus the search and study." - WAMCon virtual Nashville participant
1) "I just see WAM going from strength to strength, it's really life-affirming. I draw endless inspiration from everything that WAM undertakes." - WAM student
Thank you for powering WAM and making every one of the 10 reason above, and hundreds more, possible!
