Preview of: Annual Report 2023

October 1, 2022 – September 30, 2023

❌From the President and the Executive Director

Dear Friends,

As we reflect on fiscal year 2022 – the year since Broadway reopened – Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS was cautiously optimistic about stepping back into theaters with our legacy events and iconic Red Bucket fundraising, hoping that audiences would join us.

Today, we can say with gratitude that your enthusiasm to rejoin us far exceeded our expectations.

We undertook the in-person return of three of our most anticipated annual events: Broadway Backwards, Broadway Bares and Fire Island Dance Festival.

In the spring, our first full in-theater fundraising campaign was fueled by 40 Broadway, Off-Broadway and national touring productions, led by incredible, record-setting enthusiasm from Hugh Jackman, Sutton Foster and the company of Broadway’s The Music Man. Collectively they encouraged countless individuals to generously make donations to our iconic Red Buckets.

And after bringing theater enthusiasts together for our first post-shutdown Broadway Flea Market & Grand Auction in 2021, our beloved Broadway street fair and community celebration returned even stronger in September 2022 to wrap up the fiscal year.

This year’s successes also wouldn’t have been possible without the steadfast support from our Visionary Circle, Angels Circle, Leadership Council, NextGen Advocates and myriad of corporate events, online fundraising opportunities and sponsorships.

All of these efforts allowed Broadway Cares to restore our grant-making support to the pre-pandemic levels of 2019, awarding $8.6 million grants to more than 450 social service organizations across the country through the National Grants Program. This remarkable support is in addition to the $8.2 million awarded to the Entertainment Community Fund (formerly The Actors Fund) over the last fiscal year. On behalf of everyone at Broadway Cares, thank you for welcoming us back with open arms. Along with the entire theater industry, you’ve embraced our efforts this year with passion and generosity. We can’t wait to see what we next do together to make a difference.

Entertainment Community Fund

Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS is the single largest supporter of the Entertainment Community Fund, which provides a safety net of supportive services to all in entertainment and the performing arts. The $7.6 million provided to the Fund in fiscal year 2023 represented 44 percent of all of Broadway Cares’ grant-making.

For the Entertainment Community Fund’s National Director, Renata Marinaro, the drive to make insurance attainable for all began far from the beating heart of Broadway. It started on a cancer hotline.

“My job right out of school was working a hotline for people who had been diagnosed with cancer, many of them uninsured,” Marinaro said. “And at that time, before the Affordable Care Act, being diagnosed with cancer while uninsured meant that you were either going to get substandard care, have to pay a lot of money for it or not get any care at all.”

Being on the receiving end of calls where critically ill people were forced to choose between life and death drove Marinaro to be part of the solution.

The introduction of the Affordable Care Act made receiving lifesaving essential care possible for countless people across the country. However, in a gig-based entertainment industry where artists can be forced to switch between insurance providers on a regular basis, receiving care and navigating insurance plans can become increasingly murky.

“As an actor, you might have insurance through an employer one year, through Medicaid the next and through a union health plan the following year,” Marinaro said. “Those are three very different systems that people have to adjust to. It’s really hard.”

That’s where the Artists Health Insurance Resource Center comes in. Buoyed by Marinaro and a dedicated team of social workers, and ongoing support from Broadway Cares, AHIRC offers personalized health insurance counseling, enrollment support and referrals to health care resources for entertainment professionals onstage, backstage and behind the scenes.

Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS’ connection to the Entertainment Community Fund (formerly The Actors Fund) reaches back more than three decades, first to the creation of the HIV/AIDS Initiative in 1988. Broadway Cares provided the initial funding for the initiative and continues to provide the majority of its annual budget.

In 1996, Broadway Cares expanded its support to provide initial funding to launch the Phyllis Newman Women’s Health Initiative, and now champions a full suite of social services including Addiction and Recovery Services, The Dancers’ Resource and The Stage Managers’ Project.

In addition to the more than $18.9 million in support to the Fund during the pandemic, Broadway Cares provided the lead gift of $1 million to the Every Artist Insured initiative, which expands on the Artists Health Resource Center’s free and confidential health insurance counseling and enrollment support services.

For the Artists Health Insurance Resource Center, its services become even more invaluable when social, political and economic factors complicate matters for the industry. Marinaro has seen a drop in coverage rates through union health plans in the wake of the writers’ and actors’ strikes, and the COVID-19 pandemic’s devastation continues to ripple through the industry.

From strikes and work pauses to unexpected life events, Marinaro and her team of insurance experts are there to help performers navigate even the most complex of insurance scenarios.

For example, California-based Entertainment Community Fund social worker Kai Carter helped a woman who was delivering a baby just as she lost union coverage and transitioned into a Marketplace plan. Then, the baby ended up in the ICU – and AHIRC provided vital guidance so the family emerged from their hospital stay healthy and insured.

“That’s why our team is so valuable – we have a lot of expertise in this area,” Marinaro said. “We can translate terms and policies and eligibility guidelines into language that people can understand and act on. We are here to make it easier to find appropriate, affordable care.”

While the American health insurance system remains a complex and often frustrating hurdle for many, it’s come a long way since Marinaro received her first call at the cancer diagnosis hotline. And AHIRC remains committed to offering critical services and programs so entertainment professionals can receive the care and support they deserve.

“It’s important for people to understand that we are a resource available to them,” Marinaro said, “and that we don’t have to go back to the horrible days when people were dying because they didn’t have insurance.” Thanks to the generosity of Broadway Cares’ donors, Broadway Cares is the largest single financial supporter of the fund. Of the $7.6 million grant the Entertainment Community Fund received from Broadway Cares in fiscal year 2023, $750,000 has been earmarked for the Artists Health Insurance Resource Center.

National Grants

Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS’ National Grants Program awarded $9.1 million to 451 social service organizations in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.

Darryl Cannady will stop at nothing to keep his community healthy. For more than 30 years, the executive director at South Central Educational Development in Bluefield, WV, has been doing vital work supporting people living with HIV/AIDS in a rural and remote region. And with the closest infectious disease doctor at least 50 miles away from so many he serves, Cannady is powered by a scrappy and adaptable energy that ensures safety for his clients.

“We have the food pantry and we offer emergency services,” Cannady said. “We’ll help with electrical bills and rent. We’ve purchased batteries and tires for cars. We will pretty much try to provide the client whatever they need to ensure they can make it to their medical appointments or have a healthy meal.”

During these particularly unprecedented past few years, agencies across the country have had to be like Cannady, staying agile and responsive to their communities. Broadway Cares’ donors play a vital role in making sure those organizations stay funded and supported so they can continue to provide lifesaving, critical care – like South Central Educational Development, which received a $10,000 grant from Broadway Cares in 2023. They’ve been a grantee of Broadway Cares for 27 years.

Broadway Cares’ 2023 National Grants Program awarded $9.1 million to 451 social service organizations in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico.

The grants are awarded in three rounds each year. The first grant round ensures that those affected by HIV/AIDS, COVID-19 and other life-threatening illnesses can get access to healthy meals through food pantries, meal deliveries and congregate food programs. In the spring, additional grants are awarded to nationally recognized AIDS service organizations, health clinics and advocacy organizations and to theater and entertainment industry social service agencies.

The final round of grants in the summer, which included South Central Educational Development, helped organizations that provide direct client services, emergency assistance, harm reduction and quality of life services. These latest grants were awarded by a National Grants Committee of 21 actors and stage managers who helped lead their shows’ efforts in the Spring Fundraising Campaign.

Some 650 miles from West Virginia, Liberty Community Services in New Haven, CT, adapted its housing program to aid the rapidly increasing number of unhoused people seeking help.

“These last three years have overflowed with challenges to our community,” Executive Director Jim Pettinelli said. “From the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic to a double digit increase in the number of people experiencing homelessness and an ever-present opioid epidemic – every day, each of these impacts, disrupts and endangers the lives of the people we serve.”

Despite the endless barrage of challenges, the Liberty team has opened new lines of services and scaled up existing ones, buoyed by a $10,000 grant from Broadway Cares.

“We’re serving more people today than ever before,” Pettinelli said. “Our work will continue to evolve to find the best ways to respond to our clients’ needs.”

Earlier in 2023, a record $2.8 million was awarded to 141 food service and meal delivery programs in January and $1.13 million to 43 of the largest AIDS service and nationally recognized advocacy organizations in April.

The generosity of Broadway Cares donors has made it possible for agencies like South Central, Liberty and N Street Village in Washington, D.C., to adapt and provide on-the-ground care that is responsive to today’s challenges.

“Because of you, we have reimagined our services and adapted to the ever-changing needs of the women we welcome every day,” Kenyatta T. Brunson, N Street Village chief executive officer, said.

Broadway Cares awarded N Street a $7,500 grant in 2023. This support means Iva, a woman who has been unhoused for more than a decade, was able to move into permanent housing.

“N Street Village gave me the resources and tools to reclaim my life,” Iva said. “I am so grateful for that, and I know it would not have been possible without you.”

South African Grants

For Lindiwe Dlamini, Bongi Duma and S’bu Ngema, trips back home to their native South Africa are not just for visiting family and friends. Traveling also gives the three longtime cast members of Broadway’s The Lion King an opportunity to see firsthand the impact they’re having when they hold Red Buckets for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

“We take it upon ourselves to be involved,” Duma said. ”Every time we go home, we check and see what is needed.”

Since The Lion King opened 25 years ago, a portion of the proceeds the show raises for Broadway Cares has been shared with local social service organizations identified by the South African cast members. In fiscal year 2023, Broadway Cares sent $397,500 to 14 organizations including health clinics, food pantries, orphanages and jobs programs. The 2023 awards pushed Broadway Cares’ all-time total in support of grants in South Africa to more than $5.9 million.

To celebrate our longtime friendship and collaboration with the actors on these grant-making efforts, $2,500 was added to each of the grants to mark the 25th anniversary of The Lion King.

For the South African cast members on their own various excursions home, they keep their ears open for communities and organizations in need of support.

Keeping in contact with the grantees means the actors see firsthand the difference they’re making. “Artists are suffering back home and some of these organizations help artists, especially ones who are sick,” Dlamini said.”It’s very private because the stigma against HIV/AIDS still exists. The difference is when the help comes from an organization like this, they still feel protected because they see it as a safe space for people living with HIV and AIDS.”

The investment of time from Dlamini, Duma, Ngema and the show’s other South African actors is a testament to their commitment to bringing the stories of their Pride Lands to a wider audience, “Broadway Cares has been such a big part of people being able to tell their stories,” Duma said. “It’s wonderful to see the good the money does at home. It’s a really great impact.”

The idea started simply enough in January 1998. A few weeks after The Lion King opened on Broadway, Broadway Cares Executive Director Tom Viola was preparing to meet with the company to discuss their first fundraising campaign for the upcoming spring Easter Bonnet Competition.

“There were about a dozen South African actors in that original cast,” Viola said. “I could not imagine standing in front of them and talking about AIDS as if it was only happening here. Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDs couldn’t ask them to help us reach out to people living with AIDS across the United States without acknowledging what was happening to their friends and families back home.”

In this compassionate, 25-year collaboration between Broadway Cares and the South African actors, they serve as grants committee members. The performers are there every step of the way as dollars in Red Buckets translate into medication, food and other vital resources for people in need back home. “People who donate at The Lion King don’t know the impact even $1,000 in support can have,” Ngema said. “It goes a very long way back home when exchanged into rand [the South African dollar], assures their next meal, continued medication or a safe haven off the streets.”

Colleen Dewhurst Legacy Society

The Colleen Dewhurst Legacy Society is the planned giving program of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, honoring those who have included Broadway Cares in their estate plan or will.

The society is named for the late Colleen Dewhurst, the Tony Award-winning actress and past president of Actors’ Equity Association. She pioneered the formation of the Equity Fights AIDS Committee, which merged with Broadway Cares in 1992 to become the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS of today

“I’m so proud of what we do for each other. There are so many people who thought this thing would never go. That it couldn’t be done. But it happened anyway because so many people came forward and, in many different ways, made it happen. And to this very day, I love you all for that.”
– Colleen Dewhurst, June 1991

Joining the Colleen Dewhurst Legacy Society ensures that the values that mean so much to you will extend far into the future.

Please contact Nick Mayo, major gifts and planned giving officer, at mayo@broadwaycares.org for information on how to include Broadway Cares in your estate plan or will.
