Ballet Austin Foundation
Our vision: To build the financial base that will enable Ballet Austin to become one of the premiere ballet companies in America. A gift to the Ballet Austin Foundation represents the financial future of the organization through compounded growth of assets with dividends.
Ballet Austin educates our children - and our children are our future. Focused management has enabled the Foundation to achieve a current net worth in excess of $1,700,000. Since Ballet Austin Foundation is dependent on its supporters, please consider remembering the Foundation in your wills, charitable trusts and beneficiary designations for life insurance, IRAs, annuities, and the like.
Every penny counts!
The Ballet Austin Foundation continues to grow through direct gifts and charitable planning. Contact the Ballet Austin Development Office at 476-9151 ext. 109 if you would like to have a conversation about a gift or charitable planning.
