Here's a look back at March 9th Jeunes gouverneurs benefit evening, during which the next generation of dancers took center stage, not only among the guests of young professionals, but also in the performances choreographed primarily by dancers or former dancers from the company.
We would like to sincerely thank co-presidents Ariane Dusablon, Senior Strategy Consultant, Business Transformation at EY, and Alexandra Freedman, Corporate and Commercial Lawyer at Fasken, and their committee members, who helped raise nearly $75 000 for Les Grands Ballets' creation fund.
A special mention to sponsor KPMG, as well as to our corporate, culinary and auction partners, who contributed to the success of this evening of networking in an electric atmosphere!
The next generation of philanthropists is all set!
