WHAT YOU'RE SUPPORTING AT YAAL

YAAL is an inclusive educational-driven theatre that illustrates the transformative power of live performance! Each mainstage production costs an average total of $10,000 and your support helps keep tuition low, can help cover the costs of costumes and supplies, and helps with operational expenses, such as rent and utilities! These are critical expenses, especially during COVID and the current economic crisis.

Your support is crucial to our community. We are a 501(c)3 educational non-profit organization that does not qualify for any federal COVID emergency relief support.

Are you a retiree? If you are over 70, you could qualify to contribute an IRA Qualified Charitable Distribution. Talk to your financial advisor or tax professional about donating from your IRA without paying income tax on the transaction!
