Help Us Act It Out

Help me give my students necessary costumes to keep Drama Club alive at my school! Budget cuts are putting this free club for students in danger.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Griffith's classroom raised $404

My Project

By supporting our drama club, you’re investing in the personal growth of our students and helping us bring quality performances to our community.

The skills learned in drama extend beyond the stage and empower students in all areas of life.

My school has been able to offer a free after school Drama Club to students, however, the budget cut from the district is putting the program in danger of not being able to continue. These items will help to make sure our show goes on! Our students will have the opportunity to show off their performance arts skills. Students will also have the opportunity to learn the skills and foundations of play acting. It would be a great help from our donors to support our goal to be able to continue Drama Club this year. Our costumes will be reused for more students to use for performances for years to come.
