The MHYT General Support Fund

Mile High Youth Theatre creates theatre experiences that allow students to thrive artistically, socially, and emotionally.  We believe that in teaching empathy through the performing arts, we will not only nurture exceptional artists, but exceptional humans.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in our second year of operations, we are continuing to serve our Denver community through in-school and after-school arts programming. We have created a safe, accessible, and welcoming place kids can go in the afternoons and believe in offering programming to ALL kids while removing barriers that limit access to the arts.

Theatre teaches us to collaborate with others, how to solve problems, how to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes, question systems or practices… and how to use our voices to address them!

The arts have a huge impact on youth development. We want our students to go out into their communities as leaders, whether they end up following a path in the arts or not.

Simply put, our vision is to use theatre as a tool to enrich the lives of and empower Denver youth.

And that’s where you come in. We ask that you consider making a contribution to Mile High Youth Theatre.

Your gift goes directly to support our operational and programmatic goals. These goals include:

-Continuing to grow our MHYT scholarship tuition fund

-Supporting production needs like licensing & royalties, costumes, scenery, and technical equipment for our students

-Hiring and training new teaching artists - and paying our artists well!

-The development of our Behind the Curtain: Theatre for Positive Mental Health program

-Off-setting the cost of in-school programming for schools so we can work with more kids on more campuses each year in the Denver area

We hope you will support Mile High Youth Theatre as one of our 2024-2025 donors.
