About Us
The Dubuque Senior High Speech and Theatre Endowment was founded as a tax-exempt nonprofit corporation in 2023. Its primary objective is to provide direct, dedicated, and accessible funding for ongoing advancement of Dubuque Senior High Speech and Theatre.
In 2020 a group of dedicated parent volunteers of the Dubuque Senior High Speech and Theatre Department organized to support the renovation of the historic Lamb-Hedeman Auditorium. During the renovation process and subsequent planning for the 100th Anniversary Celebration, it was determined an ongoing “working fund” and “endowed fund” for continued financial support would advance the department for the benefit of the students.
This fund is endowed, meaning that donations are invested permanently, and the earnings are used to provide resources for Dubuque Senior High Speech and Theatre. Donations to this fund are eligible for the Endow Iowa 25% State Tax Credit.
