HOW YOU CAN HELP

The Performing Arts Center Team ("PACT") wants to show all Santa Susana High School’s students that even the toughest goals can be accomplished with a little hard work, patience and diligence. An additional $1.3 million is still needed for this endeavor.  With great appreciation to the Simi Valley Board of Trustees and the community of Simi Valley, we now have an approved bond for $8.75 million.  However, the total estimated completion for a state-of-the-art auditorium is $10 million!!!!   With combined effort we can all accomplish the present dream and create a future reality to see each STAR perform not in a cafeteria room, but on an actual….STATE-OF-THE-ART AUDITORIUM!

The generosity of individuals or companies can greatly assist with this endeavor.  By a team effort, we can provide our Santa Susana High School students with the best educational facility available, thus preparing them for the advanced and complex world that they will soon enter.  Your support, either by contributing time or money, will directly benefit both SSHS students and the Simi Valley community, and will result in a large enough facility to accommodate the needs of all groups.  Furthermore, you or your organization will benefit as a member of the community.  Your financial contribution is tax deductible.  In addition, we will prominently advertise your name or establishment, if you wish, on this website, in the school's theater and production programs, as well as all distributed advertisements.  Furthermore, naming rights for the ENTIRE new facility may be purchased for $1 million, or publicized on a number of other affiliated items at different prices, detailed below.
