The Many Ways to Give

Proctors, theREP and UPH rely on community support to fulfill their missions. With ticket sales covering only a part of our annual operating costs, no contribution is too small; even the smallest gifts can have a profound impact. Here are a few ways you can help:

1. Make a Donation and Become a Member

Our venues depend on donations to sustain their operations. Whether it’s a one-time gift or a recurring contribution, every dollar helps keep shows accessible to the community, fund educational programs and ensure that future generations can experience the magic of the arts. Many donations come in modest amounts but collectively make a big difference! Donors receive all sorts of perks like early ticket access, discounted tickets and invitations to exclusive events, while impacting the theatre’s operations!

An annual membership only costs $10 per month and members have the satisfaction of directly supporting the theatres. To become a member or make a donation visit proctorscollaborative.org/donate.
