A theatre school franchise is marking its 25th anniversary by doing the one thing that matters most to them, supporting their students to achieve their dreams. To celebrate this milestone, Razzamataz Theatre Schools has launched a special fundraising venture dedicated to supporting students going on to further education.<\/p>\n

The “25 for 25” campaign is a new initiative aimed at raising \u00a325,000 for the Razzamataz Future Fund charity.Since its inception in 2015, the Future Fund has provided over \u00a350,000 in grants to help young, talented performers continue their training. This campaign will further raise the profile of this incredible support system and celebrate Razzamataz\u2019s commitment to nurturing the next generation of talent.<\/p>\n

The Future Fund offers vital financial support to students across the Razzamataz network, helping them access the next stage of their performing arts education. Sarah Burrows, a scholarship winner from Razzamataz Carlisle in 2018, shared her experiences and what the support meant to her. \u201cI was absolutely thrilled and shocked to have won the Future Fund. The help and support I\u2019ve received at Razzamataz has boosted my confidence and skills immensely. The Future Fund allowed me to take my training further as I pursued my BA honours in musical theatre.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"picMore recently, Amy, a Future Fund recipient from Razzamataz Rayleigh West, spoke about the fair and transparent judging system together with the invaluable feedback and guidance she received. \u201cThe feedback from the judges was refreshing, especially compared to the typical yes, no, or maybe in auditions,\u201d she explained. \u201cIt\u2019s really helped me focus as I transition to full-time training. Razzamataz has been a huge part of my journey, and I\u2019m incredibly grateful for this opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The “25 for 25” campaign encourages Razzamataz franchisees, students and families to get involved by raising 25p, \u00a32.50, or \u00a325 per student, depending on each school\u2019s preference. This campaign not only contributes to the Future Fund but also offers franchisees several business benefits, including building a connected community, increasing student retention, and creating a sense of pride and purpose within each school.<\/p>\n

Denise Gosney, Founder and Managing Director of Razzamataz, explains how the Future Fund charity is particularly meaningful to her, given that financial constraints prevented her from completing her own theatre arts training. \u201cThe Future Fund is such an important part of Razzamataz because it embodies everything we stands for including helping young people achieve their dreams even if they are facing financial limitations, like I did,\u201d Denise explains. \u201cI had to drop out of my own training and it was truly crushing. The more money we are able to raise, the more we can support our students going through college or university, which we understand is particularly challenging now for many families. As a network of more than sixty schools, it is incredible what we can do together and the legacy we are leaving behind for the next generation of performers is something we are all so proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each franchisee will work with their teachers and school community to explore the best ways in which they would like to raise money for the Future Fund. In the past, franchisees have got involved with physical challenges, theatre performances and different types of sales and raffles. To ensure they are fully supported, each franchisee will receive a fundraising pack of ideas, support via Zoom calls, and full communications, including social media assets, eshots, and PR guidance. This ensures every school has the tools they need to make the ’25 for 25′ campaign a success and inspire their local communities to get involved.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe year 2025 is a big year for us as a network, and through this campaign, we are hoping that our success and celebrations will create a lasting legacy,\u201d adds Denise. \u201cBy coming together to support the ’25 for 25′ campaign, we can make a big impact on our students and their families, helping to open doors to opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.\u201d<\/p>\n
