Make a Gift to Jump-Start Performance Co. Today!

Imagine seeing just one third of the show. That’s what would happen if we produced theatre based solely on the cost of your ticket. Your donation helps us present internationally recognized theatre. As a non-profit arts organization, your ticket covers only 30% of our actual costs—your gift makes up the rest.

Only with your support can we produce world-class theatre in your backyard, all the while keeping ticket prices affordable and offering discounts to students, seniors and military.

We know economic times are tough, for all of us. These are lean days for Jump-Start. Non-profit arts organizations have been particularly hard hit with cutbacks and Jump-Start is no exception. But with a little assistance from some friends, we can beat the heat.

Here are three things we are working on right now that your gift will help us accomplish.

You will help boost Jump-Start’s 25th anniversary season commemorating a quarter century of exciting original performance by local, regional, national and international artists, educational engagement in the community, and providing a community space to a multitude of local artists and performing arts groups.

Finally, you will help us continue our unique educational work in the community. Every week, Jump-Start offers over 50 classes to about 800 participants. These include urban elementary students; children that have experienced abuse, neglect and severe health problems; adults with chronic mental illness and their children; and formerly homeless teens.

Right now you have the opportunity to double the impact of your gift. Every dollar that you donate will be matched by a challenge given by a combination of individuals and foundations, so your support right now means more than ever.

We need your generous gift today to make Jump-Start’s 25th year its best and coolest one yet.
