Tampa Bay Business Journal has named Stageworks Theatre as one of the Finalists for the 2009 Nonprofit of the Year Awards. These awards recognize Tampa Bay-based 501(c)(3), non-foundation community organizations benefiting residents of Greater Tampa Bay who are fiscally responsible and accountable with regard to program outcomes.

Tampa-based Stageworks Theatre was one of almost 100 nonprofit organizations nominated for the 2009 Nonprofit of the Year Awards and was chosen as a finalist based on its fiscal responsibility, management, mission, programming, and impact in the community.

".Stageworks Theatre has always focused on mounting quality productions and challenging the thresholds of intolerance in the community. The recognition of these goals by the Tampa Bay Business Journal adds greater credibility to our long and steadfast devotion to these two principles for both our Main Stage and our Outreach Programs." said Anna Brennen, Founder and Producing/Artistic Director. "We entered the award programs," said Andrea Graham, Board President, "because we take such pride in the positive impact our organization has in the lives of the individuals we serve and in the community as a whole, and we want to spread the word about what our organization is all about. Stageworks Theatre is very honored to be a finalist for this award."

"There are so many worthy nonprofit organizations in the Tampa Bay area," said Bridgette Mill, Tampa Bay Business Journal publisher, "and we are thrilled to present this awards event and special publication dedicated to recognizing the hardworking nonprofit organizations that are a part of making such a difference in our community."

The Tampa Bay Business Journal launched the nomination process for the 2009 Nonprofit of the Year Awards in February and word spread quickly through direct mailings, e-mailings, phone calls, events, as well as advertisements in the paper and on the website. The awards luncheon, which is open to anyone who would like to attend, will be held on Thursday June 18th at The Embassy Suites Tampa-USF and will recognize Stageworks Theatre, along with the other finalists. The 2009 Nonprofit of the Year finalists will each be mentioned in a special section of the Tampa Bay Business Journal issued June 19th.
