Our 40th Anniversary Celebration

Saturday, October 19th from 5 – 9 p.m.
at The Loft in Oak Bluffs

 

Martha’s Vineyard Mediation Program is celebrating our 40th Anniversary with our first (!) official fundraising event, and we are now accepting sponsorships and auction donations to help make this event a roaring success!

As you likely know, our mission is to serve our community by providing education, outreach, mediation, conflict coaching, facilitation, and related services to help prevent and resolve conflicts. We are particularly proud of the accessible and affordable workshops and courses we offer, which teach conflict resolution skills to residents and business owners. We believe our work and the experiences of our Program’s participants have played a vital role in promoting understanding, collaboration, and peaceful coexistence within our community.

Your philanthropic contribution will help us continue to support our commitment to justice, fairness, and a brighter future in which positive outcomes are reached through creativity, respect, and understanding.

Please find attached a detailed description of the benefits of each sponsorship level, along with an auction donation form. As a non-profit organization, your gift is tax-deductible, and we will provide you with a record of your donation.</p>

Thank you for considering a gift. Your generous donation is greatly appreciated.

With Gratitude,
Sara Barnes, Executive Director

Testimonials

“I was terrified when I came into the court. It seemed like the end of the world. Thanks to my compassionate and understanding mediators, I was able to have a productive conversation with someone I considered an adversary. I couldn’t believe we were able to work it out without going in front of a judge. Thank you MVMP.”

– Small Claims Client

“I was really not looking forward to mediation. But it turned turned out to be relatively pleasant. I really enjoyed working with the two of you. I plan to recommend mediation to others.”

– Divorce Client

“You brought us all together. It was awesome. I am so relieved. All our people felt uplifted, more united and part of a team. In particular one Board member said she felt she was taken care of with kindness and wisdom. We all know each other much better, have defined our work together and are in such better shape than we were when we started. Thank you MVMP.”

– Facilitation Client

“If you have the chance to do Conflict Coaching, DO IT! It was eye opening for me. My coach was kind, insightful and such a great listener. Most importantly, I learned so much about myself and about how I handle conflict. I now have a good, solid conflict management plan for the future.”

– Conflict Coaching Client

“It was valuable to help me handle a current conflict in my workplace. Putting a positive spin on conflict was an eye-opener for me. It gives me a structure to address problems. We had a very serious conflict at work recently so this is very important and relevant to me right now.”
