Drama Kids is about helping children build confidence, find their voice, and experience joy, and that mission extends well beyond the classroom.

We’re proud to spotlight 𝗗𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗮 𝗞𝗶𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝘂𝘃𝗮𝗹 & 𝗦𝘁. 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝘆 owner Bridget Bateman, whose support of the Make-A-Wish Wishmakers Ball helped contribute to more than $1.2 million raised this year, enough to help grant 153 wishes for children in the Jacksonville community.

For Bridget, the connection is deeply personal. Her own son received a life-changing wish from Make-A-Wish at age 10, inspiring her continued commitment to giving back and creating that same sense of hope and joy for other families.

It’s a powerful example of the impact Drama Kids owners can make in the communities they serve.
