Pointe to the Future
Alabama ballet company
Double Your Impact
A loyal patron and friend of Alabama Ballet will match all new and increased donations up to $1,000,000. Our donor’s generous gift will be used to set up an endowment to further improve the artistic achievements of the Alabama Ballet by increasing our dancers’ salaries, funding the acquisition of choreography, diversifying our repertoire, and amplifying the presence of the Ballet throughout the state of Alabama.
How you make an impact
Individual giving is crucial to the success of Alabama Ballet. Each year less than half of the Company’s revenue comes from ticket sales alone, with contributions from generous individuals like you helping to bridge the gap. Your contributions will not only support Alabama Ballet’s general operations and performances but will also fund the acquisition and creation of new works, allow us to retain the Alabama Symphony Orchestra for our spring performance, provide the resources needed to attract world class dancers, and help us provide essentials such as pointe shoes and costumes for our dancers. Additionally, your generous donation will ensure the growth of our numerous community outreach and education initiatives as well as the School of Alabama Ballet.
Help us meet the challenge and double your impact by donating to Pointe to the Future of Alabama Ballet. Each donation will impact the work we do in the studios, on stage, and throughout the community. Your thoughtful involvement is critical to the future of our institution and enables us to effectively fulfill our mission of artistic excellence and dance education. Thank you in advance for your generous support.
