The Bush High School campus in FBISD is no stranger to either of us! For Melanie, this is her alma mater high school and theater program and for Danielle, this school was a direct feeder for her middle school students when she taught in FBISD.

We are excited to announce, support, and give back to the campus of George Bush High School with their lead director and local Houston director, Destyne Miller. She has 15 graduating seniors, some of whom used to be students of Ms. Bunch,  have varying collegiate, artistic, and personal interests. By supporting these students, you the donor help to realize the goals and dreams of incredible students. Many of the decisions made after high school have long-term, if not life-long impacts on us; we wish to provide the best possible options and exposures to these students to lessen the burden of making these choices.

Last year, our donors helped us support four senior theatre students of Marshall High School in Fort Bend ISD. Ms. Lynch, their former theater director has since then joined our Fine Arts Forward Mentor team and is now our resident Intimacy Director as she opens her own business, Class Intimacy Acts, LLC. With this, we maintain an honor to assist the Marshall campus and its students with our full support through their requests and application. These students that have applied for our assistance will also be impacted by this fundraiser with our George Bush HS students. We’re truly all in this together!

Now two years in, we've helped over 40+ students and emerging professionals by connecting them with working professionals for advice and questioning, guidance in choosing college programs, as well as helping students put together resumes, admissions materials, and audition materials. We are also devoted to dismantling colonial practices of all kinds from the way we're structured to what we provide our audience. 

This is our second year to provide fiscal sponsorships to students for development such as funding college application fees and campus visits, funding studio space rental, purchasing art supplies, and overall giving directly to emerging artists in need.
