Tupper Arts excited to announce very generous matching pledge of $75,000 from anonymous donor toward the Encore Campaign

Tupper Arts leaders are excited this week to announce that “Mr. and Mrs. Anonymous” have stepped forward to make a significant impact on our community by offering a matching pledge of $75,000. 
The anonymous benefactor’s $75,000 pledge serves as a heartfelt call to action, doubling the impact of every donation made by year-end. The generosity of this donor has not only multiplied the potential for a successful campaign, but also inspired others to join in.


This initiative has sparked a wave of unity, as other compassionate donors have eagerly come forward to contribute to the match.

When the match of $75,000 is met, the campaign will only be $50,000 shy of its $200,000 goal.

Lee and Nancy Keet who have pledged to donate the "last $25,000" toward the match, are among other donors who have seized the opportunity to make their contributions count twice over.


“We are profoundly grateful for the incredible generosity of this anonymous donation” said Louise McNally, founding past president of Tupper Arts. “This matching pledge has the power to amplify the impact of every donation, big or small. It is a testament to the spirit of giving that defines our community.”

The matching initiative has drawn support from the community, and there is still time for others to participate before the December 31 deadline.



Susan Delehanty, current president of Tupper Arts board of directors added, “This is a special moment for our community. We encourage everyone who believes in the power of collective giving to take advantage of this opportunity and become a part of this historic campaign. As we approach the year-end deadline, there is an invitation to join together as a community to ensure the State Theater will remain an integral part of Tupper Lake’s future. The matching pledge exemplifies the goodwill within our community, and the time for others to act is now.”
