Annual Appeal
GUARDIANS OF THE BHP
protect, uplift, and support statewide programs of the Black Hills Playhouse. Year in and year out, they are there for us.
Friends,
We recently held a fundraising event in Sioux Falls celebrating 25 years of our Education programs, and former South Dakota Governor, Dennis Daugaard and his wife, Linda, were co-hosts. During his tenure as Governor, he was instrumental in building support for the Black Hills Playhouse. During his brief remarks that evening, he made the following statement:
“When you have a jewel like Custer State Park, and the crown is the Black Hills Playhouse, you want to show it off!” We concur–in fact, we’ve been showing it off for the past 79 years!
As we prepare for our 79th season, The Impossible Must Be Possible, we want to express how grateful we are to all those who have stepped up to invest in the Playhouse and statewide education programs. We know that you feel strongly that the Playhouse is, in fact, the arts jewel of the State of South Dakota. We’re hoping you’ll be willing to continue investing to help us keep showing it off!
A donation of any amount will qualify you to be listed as one of our Guardians of the BHP. This elite group of donors helps ensure that the Playhouse has the resources to continue offering the strong programming that we are known for. We are so grateful for the support of donors like you, who have been essential to our operations, year after year!
I’m hoping you’ll join the Guardians of the BHP and make a tax-deductible donation TODAY! Whether you choose to make a one-time donation or sign up for a recurring donation, your contribution will make us feel like royalty! Here is the link to our donation page.
Or, if you prefer to call us, any of our team members can help you. Call us at 605-255-4910 and we’ll be happy to process a donation over the phone.
Or, if you are most comfortable mailing a check, or need to direct a donor-advised fund, our mailing address is P.O. Box 2513, Rapid City, SD 57709.
Best regards,
Jeff Kingsbury
Director of Development
