How to leave a gift in your Will to the Scottish Ballet Endowment Fund
A gift left your Will is a practical way to provide meaningful financial support to help secure Scottish Ballet in years to come. Large or small, this might be the most significant philanthropic contribution you might ever make. It is a wonderful confirmation of the love you have for your national dance company, which has been an important part of your life.
Funds received from gifts in Wills are invested in the Scottish Ballet Endowment Fund to provide long term support for the company’s productions, projects and health and wellbeing programmes across the country.
