| Primary Exempt Purpose | ARTISTS FOR A CAUSE (A4AC) IS WORKING TO IMPROVE COMMUNITIES THROUGH ARTISTIC ENDEAVORS BY CREATING PROFESSIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTISTS, WHEREVER THEIR ART IS BEING USED FOR COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND IMPROVEMENT. A4AC IS A STUART-BASED, NATIONAL NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT HELPS VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTISTS TO USE THEIR TALENTS FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT, STIMULATING CULTURE, WHILE ADDRESSING THE CRITICAL NEEDS OF COMMUNITIES. SOME PROGRAMS HELP ARTISTS AND CHARITIES TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THEIR COLLABORATION, WHILE OTHERS PRODUCE RESULTS DIRECTLY, BY FEEDING THE POOR, HEALING THE SICK, OR SOLVING OTHER PROBLEMS THROUGH UNIQUE ARTISTIC SOLUTIONS. WITH A UNIQUE APPROACH, WE CREATIVELY BUILD BETTER COMMUNITIES, APPROACHING COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT FROM SEVERAL ANGLES AT ONCE, ALWAYS HAVING SUPPORT FOR STUDENT OR PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS, AND ALWAYS LEVERAGING THAT ARTISTRY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR A NEED NOT HAVING TO DO WITH ART. | PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt |

| DANCE FOR FOOD PROGRAM - THE ANNUAL DANCE FOR FOOD, PRESENTED BY ARTISTS FOR A CAUSE (A4AC) BRINGS TOGETHER MANY OF SOUTH FLORIDA'S FINEST CONTEMPORARY DANCERS TO SHOWCASE THEIR TALENTS IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE WHOSE ONLY ADMISSION FEE IS A BAG OF UNEXPIRED NONPERISHABLE GOODS. WITH THIS ONE EVENT, A4AC WAS ABLE TO ANSWER MANY COMMUNITY NEEDS: (1) FOOD FOR THE NEEDY - APPROXIMATELY 5,000 POUNDS OF FOOD WERE COLLECTED IN TOTAL AND DISTRIBUTED TO THE NEEDY THROUGH VARIOUS PARTNERSHIPS IN SOUTH FLORIDA. (2) PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES APPROXIMATELY 50 PROFESSIONAL DANCERS, 50 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AND 30 STUDENTS OF INDIVIDUAL DANCE COMPANIES PERFORMED, (3) A CULTURAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO VIEW CONTEMPORARY DANCE FOR A NEGLIGIBLE COST. MANY OF THE ATTENDEES HAD NEVER WITNESS LIVE CONTEMPORARY DANCE. THE A4AC DANCE FOR FOOD EVENT IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF THE ARTS AS A CATALYST TO ADDRESS A CRITICAL COMMUNITY NEED. THE PROGRAM PRODUCES SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER RESULTS THAN COULD BE OBTAINED THROUGH A MORE TRADITIONAL FUNDRAISING EVENT. THE ORGANIZATION IS HERE TO SUPPORT THE ARTS AND DANCE CULTURE WITH PROFESSIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, WHILE ALSO RAISING MORE FOOD THAN THE PROGRAM BUDGET WOULD PURCHASE. IN ADDITION, THIS EVENT INCREASES THE COMMUNITY'S AWARENESS OF ART WHILE ALLOWING ARTISTS THE OPPORTUNITIES TO USE THEIR TALENTS TO CREATE A BETTER WORLD IN A NEW WAY. IN 2013, THERE WERE FOUR DANCE EVENTS IN MARTIN, ST. LUCIE, AND PALM BEACH COUNTIES, WHICH TOOK PLACE DURING THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER. | $0 | $24,574 |
| THERAPEUTIC ARTS PROGRAM - THIS PROGRAM EXPLORES AND UTILIZES THE HEALING POWER OF THE VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS. HUNDREDS OF AT-RISK YOUTHS AND HUNDREDS OF ELDERLY ARE CURRENTLY SERVED BY THE PROGRAM. A4AC HAS EXPANDED THE PROGRAM AND INCLUDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL PERFORMING ARTISTS AND VISUAL ARTS EDUCATORS INTERESTED IN SERVING THE ELDERLY AND AT-RISK YOUTHS. ART AND MUSIC THERAPY ARE PROVEN TO BE USEFUL BECAUSE OF THEIR INHERENT ABILITY TO SURPASS LANGUAGE BARRIERS AND ACHIEVE THERAPEUTIC GAINS IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT. AN ORGANIZATION IN MARTIN COUNTY, HAVING BENEFITTED FROM THE PROGRAM IN TWO LOCATIONS ALL SEASON, HAS ASKED A4AC TO BE THE SOURCE FOR THEIR VISUAL ART, DANCE, THEATER, AND MUSIC OPPORTUNITY FOR AT-RISK CHILDREN SERVED BY THE ORGANIZATION. STARTING FALL 2014, A4AC WILL BE SENDING ART AND MUSIC THERAPISTS TO WORK REGULARLY WITH CHILDREN THAT HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS AND THOSE WITH MENTAL DISABILITIES. MEASURABLE OUTCOMES OF THE CURRICULUM WILL INCLUDE, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WORK ON COGNITIVE AND AUDITORY PROCESSING AND OTHER SENSORY-MOTOR, PERCEPTUAL/MOTOR, GROSS AND FINE MOTOR SKILLS, PLANNING, SEQUENCING, ORGANIZATION, ATTENTION SPAN, PROBLEM SOLVING, FLEXIBILITY, SOCIALIZATION AND IMPULSE CONTROL. | $0 | $25,990 |
| SUPPORT FOR CHARITIES PROGRAM - VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTISTS FROM OUR NATIONAL NETWORK, WHICH IS MOVING FROM HUNDREDS TOWARD THOUSANDS THIS YEAR, ARE ON HAND TO SUPPORT CHARITY EVENTS WITH PERFORMANCES, VISUAL ART FOR AUCTION, AND OTHER UNIQUE SOLUTIONS FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT. THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES ARTISTS AN OUTLET TO OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO FURTHER THEIR CAREER AND TO PROVIDE THE COMMUNITY WITH MORE AVAILABILITY AND MORE AWARENESS OF VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS. | $0 | $24,020 |
| MISCELLANEOUS OTHER PROGRAMS OTHER SMALLER PROGRAMS INCLUDE: (1) A4AC SCHOOL CLUBS THAT ALLOW STUDENTS TO USE THE VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS AS A MEANS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING MENTORING AND ACCESS TO ARTS EDUCATION TO YOUNGER STUDENTS IN OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WHO HAVE LESS OPPORTUNITY, (2) SCHOLARSHIPS PROVIDING FUNDS TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS IN NEED AND, (3) SINGING WITH THE STARS TO HELP PROVIDE AWARENESS OF THE ARTS AND BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY. | $0 | $38,878 |
