BRUNSWICK — An anonymous donor has pledged a $100,000 matching gift challenge for The Theater Project’s 40th anniversary.

Theater Project executive director Wendy Poole, artistic director Al Miller and the nonprofit organization’s board will work with fundraiser Alicia J. Nichols to meet the goal.

“We are so honored that someone believes so much in what we do that they want to help make sure we are here for another 40 years,” Poole said in a release announcing the matching grant challenge. “We know we have our work cut out for us but we know we can do it, and that the community believes in us too.”

The Theater Projects has raised close to $13,000 in donations and pledges since September, the release states.
