The Door County
Community Foundation

The Door County Community Foundation, a tax-exempt, public charity, was founded in 1999 by a group of visionary community leaders dedicated to enhancing the present and ensuring the future of this extraordinary place. The Foundation is a charitable vehicle that manages, invests and disperses funds of individuals, families and non-profit organizations. It supports programs and non-profit organizations that serve Door County and its surrounding area.

Gifts to the following Third Avenue Playhouse funds within the Door County Community Foundation can be made in cash, securities, real estate, wills & bequests and life insurance.

• Third Avenue Playhouse Capital Fund – As a non-profit organization, TAP seeks to keep high quality entertainment accessible to the community by offering reasonable ticket prices. Our average ticket price is $10 and children's programming is priced even more affordably to encourage family participation. Our box office revenues represent only a percentage of the funds required each year to uphold the artistic excellence and diversity that is part of our mission. The rest comes through charitable contributions.

• The Third Avenue Playhouse Endowment Fund
The Endowment Fund has been created to ensure the continuation of our mission. Building this fund plays a pivotal role in developing long term financial stability for our organization. The Endowment Fund was established in June of 2000 with a $1000 gift from Chester K. Berne. The fund total as of December 31, 2007 is $63,963..
