How You Can Help

Unfortunately, puppets don't pay rent. Donations to What if Puppets enable us to grow and scale efficiently by investing in the following areas:
 

  • Train and develop young artists to expand our team of puppeteers

  • Establish arts residencies in more classrooms/districts across Kansas and Missouri

  • Obtain resources to create new touring shows

  • Provide the means to safely transport our puppet shows to schools, libraries, and art centers, both locally and nationally

Every Dollar Counts

No matter the size, every contribution counts!
 

  • Safety equipment for an intern: $75

  • Paid internship stipend: $1,500

  • Nine-month residency in one classroom: $2,600

  • Create one new show from scratch:
    $10,000–$12,000

  • The Puppet Mobile: ~$80,000
