How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference
The Alaska Theatre of Youth is one of our state's oldest non-profits focused on youth development through the arts. ATY relies on the generosity of community-minded individuals, families, businesses and foundations to provide high-quality affordable programs for our participants. Because we run as economically and efficiently as possible, charitable gifts of all sizes make a significant impact at ATY. Contributions of time, skill, and supplies are gratefully accepted as well. The results of your gift are on display for the world to see: from the sparkling eyes of a young performer appearing on stage for the first time to the responsible, dedicated, well-spoken, team-oriented adult they can become through their youth participation in theatre. Your contributions help fund our many programs: Mainstage Season of Plays (performed by and for youth) Drama Center Theatre Education Classes & Workshops Shakespeare Spring Break Theatre and other School-Break Programs ATYs Annual Summer Youth Theatre Conservatory Summer Conservatory Festival of Plays Theatre, Storage and Rehearsal Hall Rentals Innovative outreach opportunities Scholarships for underserved populations and much more!
