Your Support Matters

At Creative Kids Playhouse, we teach and encourage our young actors to discover new talents, cross barriers, and develop a love for the arts. As they stand on our stage, they develop lifetime skills, confidence, and passions. Their achievements, large and small, are cause for celebration.

We depend on the financial support of people like you to help us bring musical theatre to our community.  We ask you to please join us in bringing CKP programs to more children and help form confident, talented community members.
We are unique because with CKP, every child registered is in the show! Our audition process is how our directors assign show parts, not who’s in and who’s out.
Ways to help:
  • DONATE ONLINE – A tax receipt will be emailed to you.
  • Donate your car, truck, RV or Boat – Your vehicle will be towed away, auctioned off, and 70% of the proceeds will be donated to Creative Kids Playhouse through the organization Donate For Charity.
  • Shop for groceries at Ralphs, register your Ralphs card to send a percentage of your purchase to Creative Kids Playhouse. Follow these directions to register your Ralphs card, use our Organization Number, LD148.
  • Sponsor A Show details about this exciting new program will be coming soon.

VOLUNTEER

In 2022 CKP enrolled 590 kids in 27 productions.  That simply would not be possible without volunteers.  This village needs seamstresses, set builders, photographers, bakers, ticket takers, ushers and more.  If you would like to donate some of your valuable time and attention to a coming production or an ongoing theatre need, please let us know.  We are happy to learn where your interest lies and match you with a volunteer opportunity.

What our community is saying about us…

A Wholesome, Welcoming Environment for All

We have been involved with CKP since its inception. We applaud the founders of CKP who have remained true to their vision of what educational theatre should be: a wholesome, welcoming environment for all. We also admire the instructors: professional actors who are dedicated to helping our children grow in skills both in theatre and beyond. Over the years, I’ve noticed children with disabilities, extreme shyness, and LGBTQ children grow and thrive in the many productions we have been involved in. CKP has been a welcoming venue where all children are given their moment in the spotlight. On behalf of our family and other CKP families, I thank you in advance for your consideration of Creative Kids Playhouse as a recipient of your generosity.
