The Players Centre Receives Grant from Sarasota Kiwanis Foundation

The Giving Coast

he Players Centre for Performing Arts is incredibly grateful to have received a $1,500 grant from the Sarasota Kiwanis Foundation in support of the Building Better Grownups scholarship. This scholarship creates opportunities for youth ages three to 17 to experience the personal and creative development that comes from theatre arts education. The grant will be used to award scholarships to low-income families through The Players Studio, the Education Dept. of The Players Centre. “We appreciate the generosity of the Kiwanis Club of Sarasota and the Sarasota Kiwanis Foundation for their continuing support of our Building Better Grownups scholarship program,” says Morgan Gerhart, advancement director for The Player Centre. “Our motto is that ‘no child is turned away for their inability to pay’ and with this grant, we can uphold that belief and offer local youth a life changing performing arts experience.”
