Overview

Ensuring a Strong and Stable Future

Gifts to the Endowment Foundation are an investment in the future of The National Ballet of Canada. To ensure that the National Ballet maintains the highest standards of artistic excellence, a strong endowment provides stable financial support for generations to come.

The National Ballet of Canada, Endowment Foundation's funds are held in perpetuity. The interest derived from these investments provides guaranteed income to the National Ballet year after year. With this predictable and sustainable funding, the National Ballet will consistently achieve excellence, develop and support dancers, offer education and outreach programmes and take appropriate artistic risks.

Currently, the National Ballet's Endowment Foundation has received over $20 million through the generosity of private donors, corporate and foundation gifts and government matching programmes. The interest from investments is already providing a substantial contribution to the annual revenues of the National Ballet.

Help create a legacy for the National Ballet with a gift to the Endowment Foundation or by setting up your own named fund within the Endowment Foundation.
