“What Would We Do Without You?”
A heartfelt toast and everlasting thanks to our many generous donors, especially our Monthly Sustaining Members. You are a vital part of our “Company,” and we truly appreciate you for believing in the importance of live theatre in our community.
South Bay Musical Theatre is honored to be a recipient of Arts Grants from SVCreates and The California Arts Council. Grants such as these allow SBMT to continue providing the best in theatre to the South Bay.
Donors over the past year and a half have been exceptionally generous. There were 56 individuals (*indicated with an asterisk) who contribute monthly to SBMT to ensure the longevity of the arts in Saratoga. The patrons gratefully acknowledged in the list below donated between January 1, 2022 and September 21, 2023. Thanks to everyone! Please consider joining the donor family by making a monthly contribution or a one-time donation. We also welcome gifts of volunteerism (especially if your corporation provides matching funds!), in-kind donations, sponsorships, IRA distributions, and legacy gifts. For details on the many ways to donate visit our DONATE page. If you have any questions (or creative proposals), please reach out to our Development and Patron Manager Kama Belloni.
