We would like to thank all our contributors of

TIME, TALENT, SUPPLIES and FACILITY UPDATES !

As well as, you the audience for sharing your evenings with us!

Thank-you to all the companies, volunteers and wonderful cast that made the V-Day Event a huge success. With your help we were able to raise over $2000 for Haven House and The V-Day Movement. Every year we raise a little more money through our efforts. Next year we may add another date to make it a three day event. Watch our web site for info. It will again be around Valentines Day. In the meantime, if you would like to donate to Haven House with a monetary gift, feminine products or non-perishable food items....you can drop them off at Beatniks when you're there to see a show.
