The Ballet Foundation of New Zealand Trust
The Ballet Foundation of New Zealand Trust is an independent
charitable trust (registration number CC47241) created to support,
promote and advance classical ballet in New Zealand.
If you would like to support the long term future of the Royal
New Zealand Ballet please consider supporting the Foundation, in
particular, by making a gift in your will. The Foundation aims to
build up an endowment fund from which it will make grants in
support of professional classical ballet in New Zealand. Your gift,
no matter what the size, will offer lasting support to the RNZB and
help to ensure that the living artform that you love today
continues to flourish in the future.
A gift can be of any size and needn't be cash - it could be
property, a work of art, shares or another asset. The Foundation's
Trustees would be delighted to discuss any ideas that you might
have.
The Foundation can offer you or your lawyer guidance on
appropriate wording for your will. Some suggestions can be found here.
If you have already made provision for the Ballet Foundation of
New Zealand Trust, or for the Royal New Zealand Ballet, in your
will, or are considering it, please let the RNZB know. The RNZB
would like to keep you informed about its programme and acknowledge
your generosity during your lifetime, through inclusion in the
company's programmes and by involving you and your family in the
company's work.

Trust, or to begin a confidential discussion about making a gift in
