Ways to Give
Kansas City Repertory Theatre produces work on stage that garners local, regional and national acclaim. Each year, more than 12,000 local students benefit from Rep education programs that help teachers meet state education standards and keep learning fun for kids (on both sides of the state line). The Rep also offers lifelong learning opportunities for adults through our Conversation Series, reaches out to the community with after-school programs for at-risk kids, and more.
With only about half the Rep’s revenue coming from ticket sales, the generosity of individuals who believe in the theatre’s work and invest in its vision are crucial to its success.
Get in on the act and be part of the excitement at KC Rep with a donation today. (And, because we are a 501c(3) not-for-profit organization, all gifts are tax deductible to the full extent the law allows.)

Matching Gifts
How do you make a gift of $100 worth $200? By having your employer match your gift. Many area corporations offer matching gift programs and, as a Rep donor, you receive benefits equal to the combined value of your gift plus your company's match. To get your gift matched, pick up a gift matching form from your company's personnel office and mail the completed form to Kansas City Rep. We'll take care of the rest.
