Help Loveland Stage Company Win Capital Improvement Grant

LSC_Donation for HVACPlease help The Loveland Stage Company win up to $100,000 for a capital improvement to the HVAC system in the building.  The Gannet Foundation is teaming up with A Community Thrives and MightyCause.com to sponsor a four-week fundraising campaign.  As a small non-profit, LSC needs to raise at least $3000 to qualify to win the $100,000 grant.

DONATING:
Here’s how you can help:  Donate to LSC using the links below.  You will be taken to a special fundraising page, hosted by MightyCause (similar to the GoFundMe site).  USING THIS WEBSITE IS THE ONLY WAY THAT YOU DONATION COUNTS TOWARDS THE GRANT GIVEAWAY.  Our goal is to raise at least $5000.  That amount will get the improvements started, even if the big grant eludes us.

Increasing the Chances of LSC Winning:
Each “unique” contribution scores bonus points towards earning the large Grant money.  Two donations of $25, each using separate emails, is ranked higher than if one person gives $50.  Take an extra moment and ask each member of your family to give something ($5 minimum).  Any amount helps, as long as it uses a different email.

Four Weeks to Act!
All funds must be raised in the four weeks from July 19th – August 14th.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS PLEA TO ANYONE WISHING TO DONATE TO A GOOD CAUSE.

THANKS FOR SUPPORTING THE LOVELAND STAGE COMPANY!
