CELEBRATE THE MAGIC OF OPERA
Livermore Valley Opera needs your help to sustain an enduring legacy in our community!

Livermore Valley Opera (LVOpera) has partnered with Community Health & Education Foundation (CHEF) to launch an exciting fundraising campaign! From Sept 28 to Oct 31, 2024, LVOpera will offer a tremendous opportunity, namely for every 2 dollars raised, CHEF will match it with $1. Since, CHEF does not charge processing or administrative fees, 150% of all donations go directly and securely to support Livermore Valley Opera! When The Magic Of Opera campaign raises $50,000, CHEF will contribute an additional $25,000, to hit the target goal of $75,000!

For over three decades, Livermore Valley Opera has been dedicated to achieving the highest level of artistic excellence, delighting opera fans and newcomers alike with captivating world-class productions and community engagement programs that inspire, educate, and entertain.

With ticket sales covering only about 40% of our annual production costs, this magic of opera will only continue to flourish with community support! Each and every donation, regardless of the amount, makes a significant impact.

Your tax-deductible contribution will help Livermore Valley Opera to:

 

  • Produce exceptional mainstage performances: Ensure funding needed for costumes, sets, lighting as well as attracting gifted artists and stage directors.
  • Promote education & community engagement: Make this vibrant art form accessible to local residents of all ages, including students, families and seniors.
  • Foster careers of young talent: Offer educational platforms that allow young artists to learn from seasoned professionals and hone their performance skills.
  • Provide cultural enrichment: Extend our reach beyond the stage with free community events that cultivate a deeper appreciation and understanding of opera.

With CHEF’s generous matching contributions, your donation to The Magic of Opera Campaign will be amplified, increasing its impact to support the future of opera and enrich the cultural fabric of our community.
