COVID-19 Giving

The Lakewood Playhouse, and countless others in our community, continue to struggle under the challenges of the COVID-19 shutdown and we need your help!
​
Your support is crucial to our continued existence as a theatre so that we can continue with our mission to produce engaging and entertaining theatre celebrating the human experience through the stories that we tell.
​

Save the Lakewood Playhouse

If you are able, we’d love it if you could make a donation to help us achieve our mission and Save The Lakewood Playhouse from becoming another small theatre permanently closed due to COVID-19.

• Show Sponsorship
• Volunteer
• Business Investment Ideas

Individuals and corporations can donate to the Lakewood Playhouse Friend’s Fund. Lakewood Playhouse is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit – so all donations are probably tax deductible.

SEASON SUSTAINER - Monthly Giving

The Lakewood Playhouse has teamed up with FLIPCAUSE to create one of our Most Requested ways to Donate to the Theatre.

Monthly Sustaining Donations

Many of our Patrons have wanted to Donate more to our Annual Friends Fund, but wished for an easier way to fit it into their yearly budgets.
​
By donating a small amount of as little as $10.00 a month (less than two lattes a month or a trip to McDonalds), your donation can grow to an amount of $120.00 a year!

That kind of sustained giving makes a huge impact!

As a Sustainer, you provide steady, reliable support to your Lakewood Playhouse. Since we know we can count on your monthly support, we are able to decrease fundraising expenses and put more of your contribution directly into shows and educational programs.
And Remember:
You can Cancel at anytime should you need to!
