Rooted in Real. Built for Music Lovers. Sustained by You.

This enduring nonprofit venue is the product of countless acts of artistry, collective effort and generosity. As operating costs increase, we rely on donations to fund our free community programs, keep ticket prices reasonable and reach folks in need with scholarships, instruments or a song.

Lena’s Annual Fund Drive takes place at the end of the year, but you can make a 100% tax-deductible donation to our general operating fund anytime and it will count toward this year’s goal.

For online donations, use the form below.

We also welcome gifts of stocks. If you donate stocks, please let us know about your gift in advance so that we can properly credit you for your donation. Contact Sarah Craig, [email protected], or 518-583-0022.

Checks can be made payable to Caffe Lena (not Annual Fund in the memo line), and mail to: PO Box 245, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.
