Kendall Whittier Main Street is looking for Friends!
Kendall Whittier Main Street has officially launched its 2022 Friends of Kendall Whittier campaign, an annual donor drive that supports the organization’s mission.
“As a nonprofit, private donations are so valuable,” said Jessica Jackson Seay, executive director of KWMS. “The money raised in the Friends Campaign is key to helping KWMS host free public events, recruit new businesses to the district, provide technical – and sometimes financial — support the businesses as well as continue ongoing beautification efforts.”
Kendall Whittier Main Street is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, and all donations are tax deductible. Donate Now!
There are three individual levels of the Friends Program, starting at $50 for Young Professional (under 30) or Young-at-Heart (60+), and up to $250 for “BFFs”. The most popular level is $100 or $10/mnth.
Friends receive exclusive VIP access to events, listing on the KWMS website and even some KWMS swag.
For businesses, who want to be a Friend, is most popular level is $200 or $20/month, although there is a 50 percent discount for “First-Year Businesses” for those who have never been a Friend or who are a business in their first year. There’s also a $500 “Champion” and $1,000 “Superstar” level.
“All businesses will receive a 2022 Friends window cling, and each level has additional perks as well, so a business can find the right fit for their needs,” Jackson Seay said. “Most levels for individuals or businesses do have a monthly payment option for easier budgeting.”
Individuals or businesses can get more information, pay online or set up a monthly payment plan through PayPal online here. Checks and cash are also accepted in person or mailed to the Main Street office at 2205 E. Admiral Blvd.
The Friends Program is an annual campaign that opens at the beginning of each year. This drive will continue through the end of April.
“Our donors mean so much to us,” Jackson Seay added. “It’s touching to see how many Tulsans really support the revitalization of the area and the work we do for small businesses.”
