UpStage Artists believes the community is very important in Community Theater. We try to do several fundraisers each season for different charitable organizations. Here is a list of charities we have raised money for
​
Hopeworks of Howard County - $200.00
Beltsville Community Cats - $200.00
The Beltsville Volunteer Fire Department - $800.00
Reading Partners of Baltimore - $300
​
We have also provided food for Emmanuel United Methodist Church's Christmas Morning breakfast for those who didn't have family locally and didn't want to spend Christmas morning alone, soup for their Valentines Soup drive for shut-in members and various other items.
We provided free copies of the book The Wizard of Oz to children involved in their production of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" as well as several children in their audiences.
We have performed free shows for Riderwood Community Home residents as well.
Remember, without COMMUNITY there is no COMMUNITY THEATER!
CURRENT FUNDRAISER
We are collecting donations for the The Emmanuel Food Distribution now through December 31. 100% of the proceeds go to help this community organization.
The Emmanuel Food Bank is a group that helps local families who are in need of food in a variety of ways. There are monthly food distributions that take place on the 4th Saturday of each month and an emergency food pantry for families in need. If you are in need of food before the distribution we provide a food pantry. You can contact our office at 301.937.7114 or office@eumcbeltsville.com for assistance.
