GRAND RAPIDS CIVIC THEATRE ENDOWMENT

Grand Rapids Civic Theatre Endowment (EIN 38-3483649) is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) endowment fund formed to provide long-term financial support to Grand Rapids Civic Theatre, Inc. The EIN and tax-exempt status are publicly recorded in IRS/990-derived databases and nonprofit registries. The endowment operates as a grant-making and investment vehicle rather than a direct-producing theatre company: it holds invested assets and makes distributions to supplement the Civic Theatre’s operations, capital needs, and program stability. In recent filings through the fiscal year ending June 2024 the fund reported multi-million-dollar net assets and year-over-year growth in investment and contribution activity. The fund is donor-facing through the theatre’s fundraising and planned-giving channels (the Grand Rapids Civic Theatre website and campaign materials describe the endowment as a named pillar), and it files Form 990 reports showing regular financial activity and distributions to the theatre.
