Bette Midler Stages for Success

Stages for Success

March 11, 2016

I love it when performers at the level of @BetteMidler give back in such personal ways.  Yes, the argument could be made that she has probably enough cash to fix this problem, but I love CrowdFunding and think it's tremendous that individual people who love and support the arts can make such a direct impact on dysfunctional public school auditoriums!

I want to share this story below and the CrowdRise campaign where each of us can help.  I can think of a dozen schools in Chicago that could use her help!

@KimKardashian Put your selfie to work…for a good cause! Donate, RT, I’ll match $$ 2-1,” the legendary star said in a cheeky tweet yesterday.
Midler is raising awareness of her initiative Stages For Success, which she launched with the Jeckyl Foundation.
“A few years ago I launched Stages for Success, a campaign to modernize outdated and dysfunctional public school auditoriums,” she said. “We’ve completed several successful transformations so far, and are hard at work on our 2016 project, a fantastic performing arts high school where the auditorium needs a major overhaul. We need your help to make this happen.”
