Ways to Give
-
Yes! Donors may recommend gifts to PNB from donor advised funds (“DAFs”) that they have established. However, PNB will not accept gifts from DAFs as payment for a donor’s membership dues unless the donor waives all associated nondeductible membership benefits.
-
Yes! Many employers match gifts made by active and retired employees. Please contact your human resources department to see if your company participates and obtain a matching gift form. Matching gifts to the Pacific Northwest Ballet Association goes towards the PNB Annual Fund and grants you membership benefits whereas matching gifts to the Pacific Northwest Ballet Foundation goes towards the PNB Endowment and does not grant membership benefits. Donors will be recognized in honor rolls and donor recognition programs for the full amount of their donation plus the match. PNB’s federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) is 91-0897129.
-
Yes! There are several ways to make a planned gift to Pacific Northwest Ballet. We will be very happy to work with you and your advisers to determine which is best for you. Visit PNB’s Planned Giving page to learn more.

A subscription is the purchase of tickets to a series of performances during our season at McCaw Hall. Subscriptions are not tax-deductible.

Many donors make multiple gifts throughout the year. Depending on the date of your initial gift, an additional gift may increase your membership level and provide extra benefits.
