community theater fundraiser
Fund your production without cutting the set budget.
MonthFund gives every cast and crew member their own 31-day digital calendar. Patrons claim a day and give that amount. A 20-person cast running one month raises $9,920 at the model floor.
Ambitious sets get cut when budgets are tight. Ticket sales alone rarely cover production costs.
Community theaters operate on tight margins. Set design, costumes, and licensing fees often exceed what ticket sales can cover, and the same board members run every fundraiser.
MonthFund gives every cast and crew member a defined role. Each person shares their own calendar with patrons and personal networks. Supporters claim days. The production fills the month together.
31 days. Every cast member a fundraiser.

The director or board creates the campaign in minutes. Each cast and crew member gets their own calendar page.
Patrons claim days
Each member shares their calendar. Patrons claim a day and give the matching amount. Donors can cover the infrastructure fee at checkout so the theater keeps 100%.
