Be the support waiting in the wings

Every individual and organisation engaged in staging ballet in New Zealand should have the means to pursue excellence.

Gifts made to the Foundation ensure that today’s budding dancers can dream of representing New Zealand on the world stage, and that tomorrow’s audiences will enjoy international talent right here at home.
