Support BBT’s “Dancing Into The Next 30 Years” Campaign!
This fall represents a milestone for Boca Ballet Theatre, which looks to celebrate its 30th anniversary season in Boca Raton! However, while we hope to present another year of performances and outreach programing, the coronavirus pandemic has significantly impacted our company financially. We need help to cover basic operating costs over the next several months given that we cannot currently present performances and will only be able to offer limited in-studio classes, which form our main sources of income.
At this time, we have to rely on you, our Boca Ballet Theatre family of patrons and supporters, to bridge this gap. We are working diligently to find support of all kinds, including government loans, grants, and support from donors. To secure our footing during this pandemic, we have applied and been approved for the Paycheck Protection Program’s grant/loan from America National Bank, which will help bolster our efforts to bridge the gap to our 30th anniversary.
Though this loan will certainly help us during these trying times, we are calling on members of our community to support BBT so that we can return to the studios and the stage this coming season! We ask you to consider a becoming a Boca Ballet Theatre hero by contributing to our “Dancing Into the Next 30 Years” campaign!
We began our campaign last month with the goal of securing 300 angels giving $300, 20 champions giving $3,000, and one superstar donor at $30,000. Thanks to the generous contributions of the donors listed below, we are on our way to achieving this goal! However, there is still time for you to become part of the movement!
To take part in our crisis relief campaign and help us reach our goal, here’s what you can do:
Triple your typical contribution in solidarity with BBT’s 30th anniversary season
Become a recurring donor, contributing to the company on a monthly or even seasonal basis
Encourage others in the Boca Raton community to support to Boca Ballet Theatre
Only with your help will we be able to withstand this crisis and celebrate our 30th season!
To make a donation, please visit bocaballet.org/donate or send a check donation to 7630 NW 6th Ave, Boca Raton, FL 33487!
