Is Your Gift Eligible for a Match?


Many employers will match tax-deductible charitable contributions made by their employees, retirees, and employees’ spouses. An Employer Matching Gift is a great way to not only double or triple the impact of your recent gift, but also unlock new perks and increase your behind-the-scenes access to STC programming

Leave a Legacy


Join the Society of 1616, a special group of supporters who have chosen to remember the Theatre in their estate plans with a gift to STC. Making charitable contributions is an art unto itself. Planned giving enables you to fulfill your philanthropic goals and benefit from considerable tax savings, reduce the tax burden on your estate, and provide a generous legacy gift to STC.

We recently learned that nearly two-thirds of Americans do not have a will or an estate plan, so we partnered with FreeWill to make wills simple and accessible for our entire theatre community! FreeWill is a national leader in this area with a secure online tool that helps you write a will for free! It walks you through each step of making your wishes known—all in about 20 minutes!
