ALT Mission Improvible: 12 hours of nonstop improv for the Blue Bench.

The amount raised shows how long we will do improv for. We need to raise $2,500 as a troupe to do the full 12 hours.

We know that the news around the Supreme Court decision leak can take an emotional toll, especially for survivors. If you or someone you love is a survivor of sexual violence and you need emotional support, we're always here to talk.
