The Big Give 2024: Target Achieved
We are so excited to be able to announce that through the phenomenal generosity, commitment and advocacy of our supporters we have been able to unlock all of our match funding and raise £54,672.47 for Ballet Futures: The Pipeline Project.
All at ENB are so grateful and touched by the response to this amazing cause and would like to say a huge thank you to all that donated, helped promote the Appeal and sent words of encouragement.
We would also like to say a special thank you to Big Give, Arts for Impact and Old Possum’s Practical Trust who allowed us to double all our donations through their match giving funds.
Michelle Ballentyne, Project Lead of the Ballet Futures: The Pipeline Project had these words of thanks to say:
“Words cannot describe how delighted and grateful we are for your incredible support for Ballet Futures: The Pipeline project!
We see the tremendous impact the project is having on these young dancers’ training journeys and lives, and receiving this kind of support incentivises more hearts and minds to get involved in creating a classical ballet landscape for us all to thrive and grow in. The success of the programme is also beginning to manifest in a multitude of ways, and in the new academic year, we will see two of our Ballet Futures dancers go on to train at one of the top vocational ballet schools in the UK.
Thank you so much to everyone who donated to help Ballet Futures: The Pipeline Project – we look forward to taking you with us on this enchanting journey, where our passion for this artform, fuels our passion for change!”
We look forward to sharing more information on upcoming plans for Ballet Futures shortly.
