UMich MT21 Fundraiser for Black Lives Matter
Tax deductible
Want to join us in making a difference? We're the senior class of Musical Theatre BFA majors at the University of Michigan, and we're raising money to benefit Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (via Thousand Currents), and any donation will help make an impact. If you enjoyed watching our senior entrance, please consider making an additional donation to this fund we care so deeply about. If you can't afford to give, consider leaving our entrance running on a loop, as all money made from views will also be going to this movement. Thank you in advance for your contributions!

We support the lives of the Black queer and transgender communities, the disabled, those with records, women, and all Black lives along the gender spectrum. By combating and countering acts of violence, creating space for Black imagination and innovation, and centering Black joy, we are winning immediate improvements in our lives.
