Diverse, equitable, anti-racist, inclusive, and accessible theatre does not begin and end with the work onstage. Sammy Lopez and The Industry Standard Group are doing the important work of amplifying BIPOC investors and producers. Please consider contributing to their mission if you are able! There need to be seats at *every* table for folks of all backgrounds. Presenting works featuring varied experiences is not nearly enough. Inclusivity at every level and step of the theatre-making process must be realized, from conception to production. And, may I add, this includes audiences as well! Without intentionally creating a welcoming space for all, by acknowledging and actively dismantling a host of factors that thwart the crucial sense of belonging all audience members should feel, the work onstage can only go so far.

It’s time to start saving your Acme receipts again! Donating your receipts to the library makes a substantial impact by helping us distribute books to the community. A collection box is located near the Checkout Desk, or you can drop receipts into our Book Drop. Receipts must be received by February 23, 2025. Here's how it works: The bottom of your Acme receipt lists a Community Cash Back amount. For every receipt you submit, we receive 5% of that total as a donation.

A few years ago, DonationScout set out to streamline restaurant fundraisers even more with a new ePayments system. We aimed to simplify the payment process with seamless online transactions. However, we discovered that while restaurants wanted online payments, fundraiser organizations preferred traditional checks, despite initially expressing a preference for electronic donations. This aligns with Henry Ford's insight: "If I would have asked people what they wanted, they would have said a faster horse." Often, consumers don’t know what they truly need. This led us to pivot. DonationScout is now acts as an intermediary, allowing restaurants to process payments online, while ensuring fundraiser organizations received physical checks. This experience highlights the importance of iteration in product development. At DonationScout, we embrace challenges as opportunities to innovate and better serve our partners in the community fundraising landscape.
