Lawrence St Patrick's Day parade committee awards TL $20,000
April 11, 2025
Theatre Lawrence thanks Lawrence St. Patrick's Day Parade Committee for awarding us $20,000 as a beneficiary of this year's "parade season."
This funding will be used to support youth education programming at the theatre, including continuing our suitcase story program, youth productions, scholarship opportunities, and the Penguin Project. Throughout the early part of the year there were many fundraising events sponsored by the committee to raise funds for children's charities in our community.
Theatre Lawrence was one of three local non-profits selected as beneficiaries this year. The other two are 100 Good Women and Ecumenical Campus Ministry.
Theatre Lawrence expresses our deepest thanks to everyone involved in the St Patrick's Day organization for supporting us this year and everything they do for the community.
Pictured above are TL executive director, Jamie Ulmer, Harper Anderson who represented us as our queen candidate, and education director Emily Giles.
The Lawrence St. Patrick’s Day Parade began in 1988 and is more than a one-day event. The committee runs more than 10 events throughout the year to raise money to support Douglas County area organizations that support children. Since 1998 the organization has donated more than $1.2 million.
