The Players Announces Amazing $50K Match Opportunity in August

The Players Centre For Performing Arts is gearing up for another great season. Amidst a full array of shows and events, there is an excited bustle behind the scenes in preparation of their upcoming move to Lakewood Ranch in the next 3 to 5 years. Again for the month of August, The Players has been given a challenge by an anonymous donor to raise $50K for operation expenses in order to receive an additional $50K in matching funds toward capital for the new project.

So, The Players needs your help! They are asking all of their donors to participate in this exciting opportunity. There are three ways to donate. Visit their website: theplayers.org/support-us/donate, call the box office at 941-365-2494 with a credit card number or mail a check for the amount of your choosing to The Players with "$50K Match" in the memo line.

Michelle Bianchi, Managing Director of The Players remarks, "With the launch of our Capital Campaign this year, we have been given this amazing opportunity from a generous donor. If we raise $50,000 in operating funds during the month of August, this donor will match those funds with a gift of $50,000 toward our Capital Campaign. This is everyone's opportunity for their gift to The Players to be matched at 100% with no other stipulations other than it be during the month of August. We're so thankful for this opportunity and with our big move ahead, we need all the support we can get."
