from grateful alumna, Sara Ramirez, 2005 Tony Award-winning actress.
The San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA) is pleased to announce the magnanimous gift from Sara Ramirez, a SCPA 1993 graduate. Ms. Ramirez, the 2005 Tony Award-winner for Best Featured Actress in a Musical for her role as The Lady of the Lake in Monty Python's SPAMALOT, attended the school from 4th – 12th grade.
She acknowledged that SCPA "played a HUGE role in where and who I am today so I would like to take this time to give a little something back." The "little something" is a most generous donation of $20,000, specifically earmarked for the drama, music and dance departments, and the piano fund. Sara Ramirez graduated from The Julliard School in New York City, where she refined her skills as actress. She can currently be seen on television in the hit show, GREY'S ANATOMY.
SCPA receives donations from individuals and corporations throughout the year. These can be in the form of equipment needs or money designated for a certain program. Those wishing to contribute can become a member of FRIENDS OF SCPA, with several different donation levels available. FRIENDS and more donation information can be viewed online at www.scpa@sandi.net, or call the school directly at 619/470-0555.
