Donations to Stagestruck

To our families, patrons and supporters of StageStruck,


This past year and a half, perhaps more than any other, we have earnestly relied on the continuing support of our generous donors. StageStruck's roots are in volunteerism and in people organizing and giving of their time, talents and monetary gifts with a common goal for supporting the youth of Wayne County and surrounding areas as they pursue the arts. Whether it is a performance, a class or a summer camp, StageStruck aims to continue to provide rich experiences and lasting bonds for students and families. We are thirty years strong, and despite the hardships of the past year and a half, we continue to work tirelessly to safely reopen our studio with creativity, dancing and voices, and to raise the curtain again! We appreciate you all!


With warmest regards,

The Executive Committee of StageStruck
