Novel Ways to Give

44 cents of every dollar the Chance needs to operate comes from individuals and corporations in Southern California. Contrary to popular belief only 7 cents of every dollar
that we spend comes from grants. As a non-commercial theater, donations from
individuals and corporations make up almost half of every dollar that we spend. So every dollar that you contribute counts.

If you believe The Chance is important to your community, and you want to show your support, there are plenty of options...
