Why does your donation matter?
As a non-profit, Milagro is a tax-exempt organization that operates to provide a public benefit, providing extraordinary Latino theatre, culture, and arts education experiences for the enrichment of all communities. Milagro has stories to tell on its MainStage and unique educational programs waiting to reach students across the country and with your support it can reach these goals. When you invest in Milagro, you are supporting an entire family of artists that enrich our community every day. Your contribution, big or small, helps Milagro continue its journey to provide cultural and theatrical experiences on Portland’s east side.
With more funds we can:
- Reach more students in urban and rural communities across the country through Teatro Milagro, our touring and Arts Education Program
- Continue to build our INGENIO program, a new works development program supporting Latino/a playwrights
- Take more creative risks with productions, with new and original works
- Offer more free creative and community engagement events like tertulia: art + conversation, Posada, and more!
What is the Voces Milagro Campaign?
To raise awareness about the organization’s impact in the community Milagro has created the Voces, “Voices” Campaign, – a Give!Guide campaign aimed to raise money towards supporting Milagro’s mission and work. This year Milagro enlisted the help of young Latino artists to share their experiences with the theatre and share with audiences and donors how Milagro has impacted their lives, giving them a voice in our Portland community. The campaign hopes to inspire audiences to give to Milagro in support of diversity, Latino artists and fellow artists of color.
