HOW YOU CAN HELP

$100 - AFTERSCHOOL SUPPLIES
Every $100 provides enough funding for the all of the supplies we use in a full semester to run an afterschool program at a local elementary school. This includes the dice, character sheets and materials, pencils, books and other supplies that we need to provide an excellent introduction to Tabletop Role Playing Games.

$250 - FACILITIES SUPPORT
Cleaning supplies, garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels, Swiffer pads, sponges, mop heads - all of that stuff really adds up! It adds up to about $250 per month. We have a beautiful space, and while we do apply plenty of elbow grease to keep it that way (Thank you teen volunteers!), it also takes a fair amount of physical materials.

$500 - UTILITIES FOR THE FACILITIES
You can help us keep the lights on - literally. The electricity, gas, water, and garbage bills for our community center come to an average of $500 per month each. Contributions at this level can cover those costs for an entire month. Thank you!

$1000 - HERO TO HIRE
With help at this level, you are supporting some of our teen programs such as our Teen Volunteers and our Hero to Hire program. These programs provide job training for teens who started out as heroes playing at one of our tables and are now preparing to enter the workforce.

$2500 - SPONSOR A HERO
$2500 provides a full scholarship for a hero who needs financial support. This includes a full year's worth of membership fees and a week of camp for one hero. We will never turn a hero away due to lack of funds, so we rely on Sponsors at this level to help us reach every hero who wants to participate. Thank you!

Consider an Ongoing Contribution
This year, you can have a lasting impact on The Hero Workshop through a monthly contribution. When you are making your donation, you can choose to make a one time contribution, or a monthly contribution. Monthly contributions are a huge help with ongoing support, revenue that we can rely on each month to continue to offer the quality program that our members have been able to count on year after year. 

The Hero Workshop is not just a place to play games, but also a place to learn, grow, and build meaningful connections with others who share a passion for roleplaying. It is a community where young people can find adventure, acceptance, encouragement, and inspiration to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential. Ultimately, The Hero Workshop is a place where heroes are made, both in-game and in life.
