It’s a safe place for free speech.
It’s a safe place to hear truth an the telling of truth.
And it’s a safe place to hear and see creative artworks that you won’t see anyplace else.
The Sanctuary is a beacon and stands out as a place where you can come to find out what people are really thinking and feeling.

The Sanctuary is a haven–for the immediate community in Troy, the greater capital region, and beyond.
I support the Sanctuary because of their deep commitment to independent media–the programming at the Sanctuary amplifies voices that are often overlooked through their media training workshops and the radio station. And they consistently bring impressive activists and performers to Troy that inspire me to do more, thoughtfully.

What’s important to me is their work with children, with the youth, with their families—they strengthen them, they teach them resilience through science, through arts, through finding out who they are, and what they want to be, and how to work through the issues of the day.
You can’t always be here, it’s not always easy for me to be here, but you can help us make the changes that you want to see if you can donate $5, $10, $20 a month.

It’s a safe haven for people who need respite from the systems that surround us and sometimes oppress us and make life difficult. I know in my personal life, the Sanctuary has definitely done that for me.

It’s a place to call home, where ideas are encouraged, needs are met, nurturing and learning for all ages and all families. The emphasis on low income is a reason that the Sanctuary has meaning to me.
I hope you’re getting from this that it sustains us.
So if something sustains a community, and sustains an individual and a family, then it’s almost a duty to sustain it!

Supporting the Sanctuary will help make our clinic space into a reality.
This is an important time to support the Sanctuary because there are so many projects in motion that could use resources. There’s a building that is in construction right now, our NATURE Lab, your money could go towards our citizen science lab and also increasing our reach and programs for young people.
Resources go a long way at the Sanctuary. There’s a lot going on and it’d be great for you to support it!
