Help sustain The Paper Bag Players!

This fundraiser is organized by The Paper Bag Players.

Tax deductible

The Paper Bag Players, America’s longest-running children’s theater, has been engaging kids for 64 years with imaginative use of paper, cardboard, live music, and song. Each year, our low-cost initiative, Theater for All, provides over 30,000 young children aged 3-9 with their first experience of live performance. However, the pandemic has devastated funding for live theater and children's programming, and we urgently need your support to continue our work.

For every $10 donation, one child can see a Paper Bag Players show.

A world without The Paper Bag Players is not one we want to imagine. Your fully tax-deductible donation can help us continue to make a real difference in the lives of children and families in our community. Please help us keep The Paper Bag Players on stage and in the hearts of children for generations to come. THANK YOU!
