Annual Fund

ECB is dedicated to serving its students, the community and all children who wish to dance, irrespective of their ability to pay. The cost of a dance education can be significant. Tuition alone covers only a portion of ECB expenses. Scholarships make it possible for dancers to fulfill their dreams. ECB’s ability to continue to provide programs that reach all segments of society, to produce productions worthy of the term excellent, and to subsidize tuition for deserving students depends upon your generosity.

It is always difficult to ask for help. This is truly a worthy cause. Our children are our future. They will determine what the world will look like. Grace, sensitivity, civility, community, and beauty are qualities that should define our world. We ask for financial assistance from those who truly believe in the importance of the arts in our children’s lives. Support for the arts declines during tough economic times. A thriving Annual Fund will support the vitality of existing programs and nurture the development of the innovative body of work that has distinguished ECB for almost 20 years. It will also be a critical piece of the funding for expansion and renovations of the facility. Thank you for your generosity and for sharing the dreams of a child.
