Why we need your Donations
Ticket sales alone are not enough to support our programs. The Elgin Theatre Company also depends on these to fund our productions:
- donations from individuals,
- donations from local businesses,
- grants from foundations, and
- grants from public bodies

If you would like to help support the Elgin Theatre Company your gift of any amount will help us carry on our efforts. When you make a donation to ETC you help to support cultural development in Elgin.
The Elgin Theatre Company is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Your charitable contributions to ETC may be tax deductible, to the extent allowed by law. If you are an individual or a business and would like to donate, any amount you give will be greatly appreciated.
