ways to support

If you’d like to help us bring our work to life, there are a few major ways we’d appreciate your support!

  • Our 2025 Summer Season crowdfunding campaign is live!

  • We accept one-off and recurring tax-deductible* donations year round.

  • We’re always looking for social capital within our communities. Know a venue who’d love to host a show? Want to volunteer on a project? Reach out and let us know!

Learn more about each opportunity below.

crowdfunding campaign

It’s First Take’s first fundraiser — thanks for coming along!

It’s First Take’s third year (crazy, we know), and we’re looking to level up our productions. We have a huge backlog of projects we want to bring your way: new plays, musicals, immersive events, short films – all things pitched by our community of artists!

To make these things happen at the scale you deserve, we’re looking for donations to get our artists paid and let us focus on the things that matter most: bringing y’all independent, cutting-edge work.

Each new Tier level of donations unlocks another batch of projects we can bring your way.

Our dream goal is $10k by July, but we have projects every step of the way.

Learn more and see the project tiers below!

general support

We aim to fund all of our projects through ticket sales of previous events, but every individual donation helps offset those costs so more money ends up in artists’ pockets.

If you are able to give a one-time or recurring donation to the cause, we’d appreciate it!
