CREATE YOUR LEGACY

Lois Smith was The National Ballet of Canada’s first prima ballerina. She believed so strongly in the legacy of Canadian dance that she became the first person to make a gift to DCD in her estate plans. Lois’ inspiring generosity facilitated DCD’s bold move into a new space. This change has in turn boosted our capacity to celebrate and share the remarkable art form that she so loved.

You too can leave a lasting legacy that reflects your passion for dance. Anyone can give Canadian artists a firm footing on the continuum of history by making a gift to DCD through their estate. Regardless of income, you can make a deferred gift without impacting your current lifestyle. Contributing can be as simple as adding a sentence or appendix to your current estate plan.

To learn more about including DCD in your estate plans please contact our Manager of Donor Relations, Vickie Fagan: 416-365-3233/

If you have already named DCD in your estate plans, please let us know so that we can work with you to recognize your extraordinary generosity and commitment to strengthening the legacy of Canadian dance.
