Go Over The Edge for Northwest Children’s Theater!

October 6 at The Judy

On Tuesday, October 6, we’re rappelling down The Judy’s 1000 Broadway Building, and we want YOU to join us!

Whether you’re an adventurous adult, an adventurous kid, or a family looking for an unforgettable experience together, this is your chance to take on an unforgettable challenge while raising funds to provide free student matinee tickets to local Title I schools. Gather your family, recruit a friend, or take the leap on your own!

HOW IT WORKS

• Register as a participant and set up your personal fundraising page.
• Ask friends and family to make pledges to support your climb and NWCT, just like a run-a-thon!
• On event day, you’ll receive a full safety training before making your exciting descent down the building. Rappel in your own clothes, or grab a costume from our racks (highly encouraged!).
• Every rappeller starts with a minimum fundraising goal of $1,000, but we hope you’ll aim even higher!

Every dollar you raise helps NWCT bring the magic of live theater to more kids across the Portland metro area.
