Capital Campaign

Help us keep Hartmeyer open for the next generation.

Hartmeyer needs $3 million in critical repairs to stay open and safe. Every dollar raised goes directly toward improvements — and unlocks $1.6M in debt forgiveness from the City of Madison.

We're nearly a third of the way there. You can help.

$976k raised Goal: $3M by 2029
