Help Isabella Attend Prestigious Theatre Program

Donation protected
Isabella auditioned and was accepted to the prestigious National Theatre Institute Theatermakers Summer Intensive program this summer 2025. She has applied and qualified for many available scholarships. She will attend on the acting track for six weeks of rigorous theater training and the opportunity to create new work alongside the O’Neill’s renowned developmental conferences in Connecticut. The total cost is $11000 and we now need to come up with $5000. ***UPDATE on 5/28/25: Isabella received another scholarship for $2000! So now we only need $3000! ***This includes room, board and the workshops. She will be able to earn 9 college credits too. Isabella writes, directs and acts (and sings). For Isabella, a first generation US born Latina, this is an amazing opportunity! As you may know although throughout middle and high school she was accepted to several programs, we were never able to afford any of the very pricey theater programs. Now that she is in college for theater and film we are taking advantage of this amazing opportunity which will connect her with the necessary networking in this field. She has completed her sophomore year in college with excellent grades and continues to work a part time job at the St. George Theater. So we are asking for your help! Every little bit counts. Thank you so much in advance for all your help.
Isabella’s mom.
