Zuma’s needs to raise cash for our upcoming fundraiser…… The grant monies we have so graciously been awarded do not allow us to spend those funds for fund-raising events.

We are planning our July 31st event and in the process have estimated the upfront costs to run about $20,000.00. I know that seem like a huge number but with the hundreds of Zuma supporters, I thing if we all pitch in a little bit we can pull this off and put on a fun entertaining event.

We also have a corporate sponsorship drive going so for those of you that think you might be able to persuade your company to sponsor…. Here is the sponsorship package.

For those of you that would like to make a personal contribution to assist us in this very much-needed fund-raising event, how about starting donations at

$50.00 each to build a cash reserve to pay for rentals, decorations, food, lighting, sound, wine…….  If you can help out in any amount,  PLEASE DO

Go to our website home page and click the Donate at the top of the page. Donate! This will take you to our network for good donations page. Let’s all see what we can do to help us raise funds to keep Zuma’s going. Our overhead costs are $512.00 per day or $187,000 per year. We truly need to make this fund-raiser work!!!
