Our goal during #GivingTuesdayCLT is to raise funds for scholarships in the Academy and Reach. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to experience the joy of dance. Talent has no limits, however it needs to be discovered, cherished and nurtured.
Presented by Wells Fargo and powered by SHARE Charlotte, #GivingTuesdayCLT has influenced nearly $20M in value for Charlotte-area nonprofits and inspired more than 11,000 new donors since 2014.
Charlotte Ballet’s Reach program is a three-year, community engagement, need-based dance scholarship program designed to make high-quality dance training accessible for children ages 7-13. Reach provide equitable access to training, an impact on social behavior and learning and high-quality performing arts instruction.
