Exciting Announcement…

Your Supporting Role – Our Leading Performance

We are excited to announce that a VERY generous anonymous donor has pledged $25,000 to the Egyptian Theatre if we can match that amount by August 15!

 Double your donation this summer!

This anonymous donor is extremely passionate about the Historic Egyptian Theatre and has stepped forward with a challenge for this summer.  For every donation, sponsorship, or membership received through August 15, 2014 it will be matched dollar for dollar up to $25,000. Our goal is to raise at least $25,000 to be matched by $25,000 and hit our ultimate goal of $50,000 by August 15.

The Egyptian Theatre has never had air-conditioning.  As a result, very little programming takes place during the summer months.  Very little programming means nearly no revenue is generated during these months.  This is a real challenge for us as a non-profit organization.  The Fall 2014 is on its way to be one of our busiest schedules ever!  Help us continue the tradition of great diverse events. If doubling your donation this summer to benefit the historic Egyptian Theatre isn’t enough then we havesurprise for you!  Everyone who donates between now and August 15 will receive two FREE tickets to attend a special classic movie on Wednesday, December 10 to celebrate the 85th Anniversary of the Egyptian Theatre! Your support is needed today!  Can YOU help us meet our goal? Your $25 donation becomes $50 Your $50 donation becomes $100 Your $100 donation becomes $200 Your $250 donation becomes $500 Your $500 donation becomes $1,000 Your donation is completely tax deductible.
