How can I help? At CYT there are many ways to get involved including Volunteering as well as helping financially. Giving to CYT means life change, and it all starts with people like you! Below you will find the various ways that you can support our Mission through our Values.
  • People over Programs
  • Character over Competition
  • Excellence over Ego
  • Service over Spotlight
Building a strong community is our desire but not everyone can afford the opportunity to participate in our programming. It costs $1,500 for one student to participate in a full year of CYT with our Classes, Camps and Shows. We never want to turn anyone away and we continue to grant scholarships to families in need. You can give to our general Sponsorship Fund and help students build their character on and off the stage.

To donate to our General Scholarship Fund, select People as your donation designation.

"At CYT I've made friendships that will last a lifetime and I've learned valuable lessons and skills that I will never forget"

A CYT San Diego Student

More Than Just A Show!

CYT's programs are about so much more than musical theater! We are dedicated to developing character in children and adults one stage at a time.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are able to serve our community by providing quality, affordable educational programs, and productions. However, ticket sales and class tuition are not sufficient to cover the cost of delivering top-notch programming.

A gift to CYT is an investment in an established, family-oriented organization that helps provide young people a safe, wholesome environment and skills to make better life choices so that they become positive, contributing members of their community. CYT also allows young people to explore the arts in an atmosphere that nurtures their inner creativity while developing their character.
