Pointe to the Future
CELEBRATING THE SUCCESS OF POINTE TO THE FUTURE
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters and a transformational matching gift from a devoted patron and friend of Alabama Ballet, the Pointe to the Future campaign is a success.
Our loyal matching donor pledged to match all new and increased gifts up to $1,000,000—an extraordinary commitment that inspired gifts across our community. Together, these donations are helping ensure the future of ballet in Alabama by increasing dancer salaries, supporting the acquisition of new choreography, diversifying our repertoire, and expanding our reach throughout the state.
We are profoundly grateful to each donor who helped us meet the challenge. Your support has a lasting impact on our dancers, productions, education programs, and outreach efforts. From pointe shoes to performances, your belief in our mission allows us to pursue artistic excellence and enrich lives through the power of dance.
