We serve young people ages 4-21 and accept all who audition for our casts. However, we&#8217;ve never had a stage of our own; traveling and renting local stages has become increasingly difficult and costly. However, we&#8217;ve been given the opportunity to become part of a redeveloped theatre space in a historically underserved community. This new theatre space will be part of a larger cultural hub of businesses and community engagement. We are thrilled to be part of this opportunity but must transform this space into a functioning theatre. We are requesting grant support to purchase new seating for this theatre that will allow us to accommodate our audience safely and comfortably, as they often include parents and grandparents of our performers. We are collaborating with another local community theatre and have secured $25,000 in total grant funding, and are prepared to contribute an additional $35,000 of combined funding from our own organizations. <\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $70,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): $60,000<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: Spring 2025- Summer 2026<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Northwestern Pennysylvania<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 4-21<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): <br \/>\nContact First Name: Kristy<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Porter<br \/>\nContact Title: <br \/>\nContact Phone: 8142828607<br \/>\nContact Email: www.fcctheatre.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: French Creek Community Theatre Legal Name (if Different): Also Known As: FCCT Mailing Address: P.O.
