Giving Tuesday falls on December 3rd this year. We’ve started our donor campaign on Facebook. You can also call us at 228-374-5547, come visit us or click here to donate now. OOMA was awarded the 2019 PRISM Award for Excellence in Art Education by the Mississippi Art Education Association on Friday, November 8th. Being named as an award-winning educational institution inspires us to continue our goals to strengthen the programs that we offer. Your donation can create an amazing impact on one creative child! Whether you give 5.00 or 500.00 every dollar you give will help fund need-based scholarships for young artists who will attend OOMA’s Summer Art Camp.

HOW TO OPTIMIZE YOUR GIVING:

  • Starting at 7am CST on December 3rd, Facebook will be matching donations until they’ve given $7M, so get up and donate on #GivingTuesday!
  • CREATE your own fundraiser in support of OOMA (donations to your fundraiser in the above time period will also be matched!). See below for a suggested narrative for your fundraiser.
  • SHARE our Facebook fundraiser with your friends.
  • TAG friends in the Facebook comment section that you think would be interested in supporting the Ohr-O’Keefe Museum of Art.
  • FORWARD this email to those that may be interested in supporting our educational mission.
If you’d like to start your own fundraiser but don’t know what to say, copy and paste from below:Hey friends! I’ve chosen to support The Ohr O’Keefe Museum of Art for my #GivingTuesday fundraiser this year. OOMA has supported art education on the Mississippi Gulf Coast for years and I’d love it if you would choose to support them with me. Any amount helps and donations made after 7 am CST on December 3rd will be matched by Facebook! Thank you for anything you can give!

Thank you for supporting OOMA!
