There are many ways to make a gift
We are grateful for your interest in making a gift to support San Francisco Ballet. Here are many ways you can make a gift. If you do not see your preferred method listed, please reach out and we will be happy to work with you.
Our easiest option—donate online! You will immediately receive an email confirmation, and a printed tax receipt will be mailed to you in 7–10 business days.
Please make all checks payable to San Francisco Ballet Association. Be sure to include your name and full mailing address so we can properly acknowledge your gift. If sending by mail, please direct to the following address:
San Francisco Ballet
Attn: Development
455 Franklin Street
San Francisco, CA 94102
Multiply the impact of your gift by taking advantage of your employer’s matching gift policy. If you don’t know if your employer offers this option, reach out to your HR department for details.
If you have stock that you have held for more than one year, you can make a fully tax-deductible gift valued at its market value at the time of donation, even if the value at the time of purchase was less. There is no capital gains tax due on the stock’s appreciation.
Donors who are 70½ may use their IRA to make qualified charitable contributions. In addition to the benefits of giving to charity, a qualified charitable distribution excludes the amount donated from taxable income. Keeping your taxable income lower may reduce the impact on certain tax credits and deductions, including Social Security and Medicare.
SF Ballet gladly accepts wire transfer gifts if this is preferable for you.
Giving through your estate ensures your legacy lives on.
