THE RESILIENCE FUND became our “go-to fund” when we closed our doors in March and our revenue dropped overnight by nearly $1 Million dollars. Thanks to the generous support of our community it has kept Charlotte Ballet strong and secure through this challenging time. Any gift, no matter the size, will impact both our artists and organization during this time.
THE RESILIENCE FUND continues to be our lifeline. With the support of our community, it has allowed Charlotte Ballet to:
•Continue training young dancers in the Academy through both masked, in-person and online via zoom training
• Perform for a live audience for the first time since March in A Fairy-Tailored Nutcracker
• Move our Reach Program entirely online to continue providing dance instruction at no cost to those in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg area
• Provide digital content via our @home with Charlotte Ballet series to keep our dancers creative and community engaged
• Support our dancers in safely returning to the Center for Dance first for class, then for rehearsals and finally for performances
With continued support of THE RESILIENCE FUND, we can sustain this creativity and prepare for unseen challenges that may lie ahead as we navigate this new chapter. Make a contribution below or to make a gift by check, stock, or your donor-advised fund, please contact the development office at 704.414.2783.
