We need your support!

Ticket prices alone do not cover our expenses. Our artistic and educational accomplishments are not possible without financial assistance.

We are a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization; your contributions are tax-deductible as allowed by law.

Your support goes directly to help fulfill our mission and commitment to nurture artists and celebrate the tenacity of the human spirit.

There are many opportunities for making donations. In-Kind donations dramatically help to reduce Apple Tree’s spending on necessary office equipment needs. Goods and services-in-kind can range from computers and the provisions of building materials to the donation of postage for mailings.

Sponsorships and Giving Opportunities

Several production sponsorship opportunities are still available for the 2006-2007 season.

By sponsoring an Apple Tree Theatre production, you and your company will be playing a vital part in Apple Tree's artistic success, as well as supporting a center for artistic excellence. As a sponsor, you will receive special benefits tailored to your company and designed to increase your visibility within the Chicagoland area. Host a school, your employees or a client through exciting entertainment opportunities.

Apple Tree Theatre depends on leadership contributions from its major donors in the Director’s Circle. Membership in the Director’s Circle is for donors who give annual gifts of $500 or higher.

Tribute Gifts

Honor a Special Person or Event and support Apple Tree Theatre. After we receive your Tribute gift and instructions, we will immediately send an acknowledgement with the name of the donor and the person or occasion to be remembered.

Planned Giving

There are several ways that you can provide for Apple Tree Theatre in your bequest or estate planning. Apple Tree Theatre can be the beneficiary of a Charitable Remainder Trust, a Charitable Gift Annuity, or another deferred gift plan.

For additional information on how you can benefit Apple Tree Theatre and your heirs through planned giving, first contact your attorney or financial advisor, who will then contact Apple Tree Theatre's Director of Development.
