How to Contribute to the Ford Theatre Foundation

The Ford Theatre Foundation was created to seek private funding from individuals, corporations and foundations to ensure the future of Summer Nights at the Ford. Incorporated in 1995, the Foundation received its tax-exempt status in October, 1995, and has raised over $145,000 in its first two years of operations. Our long term fund raising goal is to provide 50% of the revenue needed to continue Summer Nights, which has a current budget of $395,000.
