Still essential. Still powerful.

Cash donations continue to be a lifeline for Alberta Ballet. Whether you’re giving once, monthly, or annually, every dollar supports our performances, our artists, and our community programs.
You can make a cash donation online, by mail, or by phone. For many, this is the easiest and most familiar way to give—and it’s still deeply appreciated.
