Adopt a Dancer Program
Become our dance partner!
To create a work of art it takes years of training, countless hours of practice, and some very expensive footwear. An Adopt a Dancer donation helps keep dancers in the pink by offsetting some of the expenses of performing, such as pointe shoes, performance wear, or other dance-related expenses.
?
Did you know that a single pair of pointe shoes or men's stage boots can cost anywhere between $100 and $160?
Women's pointe shoes last just 1-3 weeks, depending on the intensity of dancing, and continuing to use them after they've softened can be dangerous.
A female dancer can go up to 14 pairs of pointe shoes in one season, while male dancers may need as many as six pairs of flat shoes.
Your support ensures our dancers can continue to inspire and bring the beauty of ballet to our community. Contribute today to support all our dancers or designate a favorite dancer to benefit.
Adopt a Dancer donations made to BTM are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Please note that designating a specific beneficiary may affect the tax-deductible status of your contribution. We encourage you to consult your tax professional for guidance.
