Gideon's Feet is a small-but-mighty aid organization founded in Dallas-Fort Worth and serving multiple arts communities across the country. It provides support to those in the theatrical community during times of crisis and offers opportunities for artists to use their gifts to help those in need.

In the last 6 years, the group has raised over $65,000 for artists across the country. After starting in DFW, they have expanded to help artists in New York City, Los Angeles, and places in between.

They have helped homeless artists get back on their feet, provided help with final expenses after unexpected loss, delivered meals (sometimes even sent a pizza from across the country), helped provide transportation to physical therapy appointments, paid rent and moving expenses, raised money for a wheelchair accessible van, and helped with many, many medical expenses.

Follow the homepage for updates on the latest campaign.

The annual Sugar Cookie Gala Ticket, sponsored by the Dallas Children's Theater, is a fun, family-friendly evening that raises funds to support the organization's primary mission: providing financial assistance for performing artists in times of unforeseen crisis. Guests can expect sugar cookie decorating, lots of great food, and a visit from Christmas carolers, along with a silent auction and performances from Dallas-area talent.
