Support DCT This Giving Tuesday

A fundraiser for Delaware Children's Theatre

$1,385 raised from 22 donors

$25,000 goal

As the weather turned cold, DCT learned that our heating system was no longer working. Our two hardworking boilers had finally decided it was time to retire. They served us well, but we now needed two new heating units. After much research we were able to find an affordable option that was installed right before our winter show opened! 

Please help us reduce the burden of this unexpected purchase and donate to the cause! We appreciate your consideration and assistance.
