Story
The Entertainment Community Fund has served as a safety net and resource to all performing arts and entertainment professionals for over 140 years.
For the past 20 years, the Fund's Looking Ahead program has been committed to supporting the mental health and wellness of child actors and other professional young performers between the ages of 9-18.
From counseling services to help youth manage the emotional challenges of a career in the industry, to social events to help form meaningful relationships with peers, to leadership programs that support kids in developing their sense of self confidence, Looking Ahead wants to ensure that all professional child actors across the country have the skills, knowledge and support needed to navigate the challenges of a life in the industry and make a successful transitions to adulthood. Whether remaning in the industry in some form, or choosing to exit to pursue other interests, the Looking Ahead program is a safety net for all professional child actors and entertainers.
Thank you for giving generously to help the youth of our entertainment and performing arts community.
