PROJECT38 Fund

Why Give to Our PROJECT38 Fund

38 plays at 38 schools sounds impossible, but CSC does just that through its most innovating and wide-reaching education program. Your gift helps underwrite teaching artist-based instruction at more than 38 schools across the tristate and supports the PROJECT38 Festival every spring. In 2020, 17% of schools were in rural communities, 40% of schools were located in the suburbs, and 43% of schools served urban populations.

Because of you, upon completion of PROJECT38, 85-90% of students report improvement in inter-personal skills like creativity, collaboration, critical thinking and grit. Also, up to 90% claim improvement in Shakespeare comprehension. Most importantly, PROJECT38 fosters empathy among peers. After participating in PROJECT38, 70% of students claim they have more tolerance for opinions that are different than their own.

“I learned more that without being able to be near each other people will still gather in unexpected ways and produce something great.” - Student from Liberty Junior High School
