Performing Arts
Performers for Progress engages student leaders in producing performing arts showcases featuring their peers. As arts programs in schools face budget cuts, these showcases provide an opportunity for students to flaunt their artistic abilities and collaborate with other creative students.

Social Awareness
Art is often most powerful when linked to social service and public engagement. Performers for Progress aims to foster compassion and social awareness in its students by partnering each student production with a local or international nonprofit organization.

Community Service
Ticket sales from each showcase benefit that production's partner nonprofit organization. Students select the organization they want to work with for each show and give a presentation about it during the performance to help raise community awareness about the organization and its mission.
