Raise The Frequency, is a 501 C (3) nonprofit organization, providing support for local and community-based arts, culture, and humanity nonprofits whose activities promote an appreciation for, enjoyment and understanding of the visual, performing, and media arts.

RTF sponsors initiatives that support existing and developing art centers, and is preparing to provide non-profit organizations, their funding partners and service aggregators, with sophisticated capacity-building, knowledge management software tools. RTF shall also offer the nonprofit community data aggregation and information services, as well as administrative and managerial support in the use of the software tools.

RTF also offers support for multidisciplinary media and interactive art programs that generate social participation through events. Among other capabilities, our staff brings a particular knowledge of the economics of digital art event production, including fund raising events, and events that present local and community's art, and events that contribute to the overhead of art center facilities and make optimum use of art center resources.

Advancement of the Arts

Local and Community-Based Art: We support the creation of local produced and community-focused art that expressed the values of the community, is open to the public when produced; particularly experimental art produced by struggling artists that otherwise would not have an outlet.

Multidisciplinary and Interactive Art: We support the creation of multidisciplinary media art programs and interactive art. Multidisciplinary media art programs support more than one discipline, e.g. theatre, dance, music and/or visual arts. These art forms link with experimental music using nontraditional techniques and/or digital technology. Interactive art generates social and group participation in a public arena. It is art that solicits a collaborative response from its audience, even as it encourages collaboration between artists blurring the distinction between audience and art form, professional and amateur, spectator and participant. The process whereby this art is created, the means by which it is displayed and the character of the work itself inspires immediate actions that connect people to one another in a larger communal context. While focus is on digitally produced media, supported art forms include live music production, multimedia visual presentations, staged performances of experimental dance forms, and large-scale interactive mechanical and visual sculpture.

Art Centers: We support public, private initiatives which marshal the resources of public entities and private, nonprofit or proprietary organizations for neighborhood or community improvement purposes in order to new create art centers and preserve community arts in the face of large-scale development which favors national- and internationally-based art packaged for mass consumption. Particularly, we target federally designated redevelopment areas and areas below the federal poverty line and economically challenged areas where space cost and permitting issues may restrict economic viability for providing economically viable arts facilities.

Fund Raising Activities

Artist Grants: We furnish artists with direct financial aid for the production and display of interactive art works, with particular emphasis on those artists whose goals and projects exist beyond the institutional mainstream.

Artist Network Development: We assist these artists to develop supportive networks by facilitating contact with public institutions that can supply them with material resources, technical assistance, volunteer services and financial aid.

Exhibitions: We identify and support sites of public presentation for the display of interactive artwork, with special focus on venues that emphasize the civic function of such works.

Events: Where permitting and/or facility issues restrict the ability of community-based artists to present their work, we host events that bring together community and community-based artists in legally permitted venues, supporting the production costs of those events.

Educational Outreach: We educate a larger public concerning the community value and social relevance of multidisciplinary and interactive art.

Software

Reaching beyond our support of the arts, RTF is developing an automated information database and evaluation framework for assessing non-profit performance. We are focused on a systematic gathering of performance assessment data, based not in a human information gathering and report generation, but in data automatically generated through system transactional operations. RTF intends to monitor nonprofit use of certain Internet -based services by which volunteers, equipment, expertise, and other resources are accessed. Transaction values are measured and reported; with reporting data shown against historical performance and industry averages.

The data presents a quantitative and qualitative means by which non-profit managers, their funding partners and service provides, can assess the relative performance of the non-profit in terms of the non-profit's ability to leverage one party's financial contribution with other financial and non-financial resources.

The data allows nonprofits managers to compare organizational performance against internal milestones and other local nonprofit organizations, thus enabling informed decisions for improving and/or adjusting their organization and systems. The data can also be used by non-profit managers in assessing the effective use of collaboration, between and among other non-profits and the nature and quality of community-based support, can be used to administer and manage resource-based matching grant programs, and in monitoring the quality of volunteer support and its own ability to effectively manage volunteers.

Foundations may use the framework-based evaluation criterion to select among the best grantees, giving them a basis of support for signaling other funders about how to conduct their work more effectively, to recommend to grantee on how they could improve the performance of their organizations to better align with foundation objectives, and to advance the overall state of knowledge and practice in the area, thus improving fulfillment of non-profit purposes which are being supported.
