My Project

Our student performers are bursting with creativity, courage, and talent—they just need the right tools to be heard and connected. Whether they’re acting, singing, stage managing, or running tech, our students bring their whole hearts to every production. With your support, we can elevate their voices—literally—and help them shine on and off stage.

To help our students perform their best, we are requesting wireless microphones and walkie-talkies for our stage productions.

These essential tools (microphones and rechargeable walkie-talkies) will ensure performers can be heard clearly and that backstage crews can communicate efficiently to keep shows running smoothly. Clear audio and seamless coordination are not just technical needs—they are confidence-builders that empower students to focus on their craft, support each other, and grow in their creative expression.

Our students come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique stories and strengths to the stage. Many of them find theater to be a safe, inspiring place where they can explore who they are and discover their potential. By funding this project, you are not just giving them equipment—you’re investing in their voices, their teamwork, and their future. Thank you for helping our stage come alive.
