In some former years, we have received small ~$5,000 arts grants from the Somerset County Cultural Commission. This income barely covers the costs of producing the shows and other basic expenses (insurance, electric, smaller upgrades, etc). Our annual income also historically only includes ticket sales, youth/child programs, small sponsorships and smaller donations and fundraising events. The “Home Runs For Charity” program will make sure that the home runs hit by the team don’t just make a difference on the field, but larger wins off it.Villagers Theatre doesn’t receive financial support from Franklin Township. In addition to the tickets being donated with the Fraternal Order of Eagles Aerie #2137, the organization has teamed up with the Somerset Patriots to give $100 for every home run hit at home by a Patriots player to a deserving local charity. Over the years, Bridgewater Aerie # 2137 has provided monetary support for programs that assist the homeless and hungry, funded scholarships for deserving high school seniors, donated to groups that assist our veterans as well as local police, fire and rescue groups. The motto “people helping people” is the driving force behind their efforts to help those less fortunate throughout the community. The Fraternal Order of Eagles Aerie #2137 has a long history of charitable work supporting both local as well as national causes. The Somerset Patriots have teamed up with the Fraternal Order of Eagles Aerie #2137 for a special program to donate tickets and raise money for non-profits throughout Central New Jersey.
