Since 1923, EAG has provided financial assistance and support services to tens of thousands of professional performers. Over the past one hundred years, we have been sensitive and responsive to the changing needs of our clients and the changing times and have grown into a strong and reliable safety net for those we serve. EAG is known for our deep commitment to and understanding of NYC's performing arts community and as a resource where one can receive assistance without judgment. We meet our benchmark for success daily: no qualified professional performer who has asked us for help has ever been turned away.

"Over the pandemic, the Episcopal Actors' Guild came to my aid (and helped countless other actors), providing food cards, rent payments, and other resources to help with our mental and physical being. I know if there is an actor-in-need--ever--they can go to EAG. Please support one of the only nonprofits that is familiar with the actual day-to-day struggles a freelance professional actor endures in NYC. Their mission to always be there for the little people is one that needs to be spread throughout the world. Love love love."--an actor helped with rent and food |
EAG board member Craig MacArthur Doležel is returning to the Big Sur Marathon on April 27th, 2025, running along one of the most awe-inspiring courses in the world. But this isn’t just about crossing another finish line—it’s about making a real impact for a profoundly personal cause to many of us: supporting performers in need. Craig aims to raise $2,000 for EAG and we are honored to have his support (and sweat!).
