In June the IRS approved our application for 501 (c) (3) status. This is a real milestone for the organization and we thank you for your support in getting us here. To celebrate this achievement, a generous and anonymous donor has challenged Homeroom's supporters to raise $5,000 towards our goal of opening a performance space. **If we do, the donor will match that $5,000!** **If you have ever considered making a donation to Homeroom, this is the best time to do so.** If we reach our goal, your support will be doubled during this campaign. Click <a href="https://www.causes.com/fb/donations/new?cause_id=334022&fundraiser_id=17548579&m=38d81d22">**here**</a> or the donate button to the left to add your support.
