You give → The Patterson Foundation matches → Our community partners match again. That means your gift can be TRIPLED.
The most powerful time to give is Wednesday, April 15 from 12:00 PM – 4:00 PM, when your donation can go the furthest and make the greatest impact. During these hours, even small gifts make a huge difference. A $25–$100 donation becomes a triple-impact gift that helps strengthen community theatre, expand arts education, and amplify generosity across our entire community.
This is all thanks to Professional Benefits, Cavanaugh & Associates, Purmort Martin Insurance, and The Sarasota Players Board of Trustees.
During the 2026 Giving Challenge, from Wednesday, April 15 at 12:00 PM through Thursday, April 16 at 11:59 AM, every donation to The Sarasota Players is matched dollar-for-dollar thanks to the incredible support of the The Community Foundation of Sarasota County and The Patterson Foundation. And it gets even better, our community business sponsors and Board of Trustees are also stepping up to match donations during select hours, creating a powerful 3-way match.
