Individual Donations

Throughout each season, the Anderson Center is ever mindful of the fact that we couldn't do it without you.  Your attendance at one or more of the 175+ annual events in our theaters is one testament to our success, and we're confident that you will find upcoming programming that will stimulate your mind, exhilarate your senses and provide you with cherished memories.  However, ticket revenue accounts for less than 50 percent of our annual operating budget, and with an aging facility we are hard-pressed to find funding for extremely critical needs.  Much of the technical equipment in the theaters is the original equipment from 1985, when the Center was built, and by all accounts, has already outlasted its expected lifespan.  We will need to replace more and more equipment as it deteriorates in order to continue providing our audiences with the highest-quality performance each time the curtain rises.

If the Anderson Center has enriched your life in the past, please consider a charitable donation of whatever amount you possibly can.  You may charge your gift to your credit card quickly and easily at our secure online giving site: www.giving.binghamton.edu (select Binghamton Fund for the Anderson Center for the Performing Arts from the pull-down menu).  If you prefer, you may mail a check payable to "Binghamton University Foundation Account #10309" to the Anderson Center, Binghamton University, PO Box 6000, Binghamton, NY 13902-6000.  Please know that your gift in any amount will be most appreciated!
