The Greek Theatre is committed to serving our community through various charitable donations. Over the years the Greek Theatre has enhanced the lives of youth in the Los Angeles areas as well as supported numerous philanthropic causes. Year after year the Greek Theatre has been recognized for its good will from the City of Los Angeles and been awarded several proclamations.

EDUCATION

In addition, Nederlander-Greek, Inc.'s community commitment also includes education and job training efforts for Los Angeles' young people. Each summer, Nederlander-Greek hosts tours of the Greek Theatre during which theatre management volunteers time to share expertise by lecturing to the visiting theatre and music business students of UCLA and USC.

NEIGHBORHOOD SAFETY

Providing a safe environment for our neighborhood is of key importance for Nederlander-Greek and has been enhanced by our Yellow Jacket Program. The Yellow Jacket Program consists of a neighborhood patrol group who roam the surrounding area in pairs, monitoring and addressing noise, traffic and security issues and solving potential problems on the spot. Neighbors report an increased feeling of well-being when patrols are on duty and one team even helped rescue a family's beloved dog.
