You can help guarantee the future of Olean Community Theatre, Inc.  

Give to The Futures Fund

You can designate your gift to be put toward scholarships, equipment purchases and upgrades, or for the general fund.  The great thing about The Futures Fund is that anyone can participate at almost any level -- from $35 on up.  And if you work for a company that matches the charitable gifts of its employees, you may be able to double your contribution!
