Give Local 757 Starts Now. Here’s Why It Matters.
Mark your calendar for Tuesday, May 5. That’s when Give Local 757 brings our community together for one big day of generosity.
But here’s the part most people miss. You don’t have to wait.
Giving is already open.
That means you can make your impact today and help Virginia Stage Company build momentum before the big day even begins.
What Is Give Local 757?
Powered by the Peninsula Community Foundation, Give Local 757 is a region-wide day of giving fueled by social media, community support, and a shared goal of strengthening the organizations that make Hampton Roads what it is.
It’s one day. A lot of voices. And a real chance to make an immediate difference.
Why Virginia Stage Company?
Because theatre is more than what happens on stage.
Your support helps:
Bring students into the theatre for their first live performance
Provide workshops and study guides that connect learning to storytelling
Offer free and low-cost access to military families through partnerships and programs
Take productions like Every Brilliant Thing into the community, reaching people where they are
Expand accessibility through ASL, audio description, open captioning, and sensory-friendly performances
This is about access. It’s about connection. It’s about making sure live theatre belongs to everyone in our community.
Be Part of It
Give Local 757 is about what we can do together in a single moment.
If you’ve ever sat in the Wells Theatre, brought a student to a matinee, experienced a touring performance, or simply believe the arts should be accessible to everyone, this is your chance to show it.
Make your gift today and help us keep theatre open, accessible, and part of this community.
