Founded in 2012, the Jeunes Gouverneurs committee is made up of young professionals from 25 to 45 years old whose mission is to heighten awareness in their circles of the importance of being engaged in the community and of fundraising in the cultural sector, at the same time introducing them to the Grands Ballets company.
This experience enables the Jeunes Gouverneurs to get involved in the organization and sale of fundraising programs and in networking activities with the aim of supporting Les Grands Ballets, while developing a network and their skills in seeking funding.
This extraordinary fundraising event brought together 250 participants from Montreal's young business scene for a cocktail reception, a private performance by Les Grands Ballets and a virtual auction. Guests danced the night away to a live DJ, alongside the company's dancers. Dance, networking and glamour came together to raise awareness about philanthropy and raise funds for Les Grands Ballets.
Support the Jeunes Gouverneurs’ goal to raise $10,000 to the benefit of Les Grands Ballets’ artistic and philanthropic continuity, at the core of the company’s concerns.
Les Jeunes gouverneurs’ cocktails offer unique networking and discovery opportunities by allowing attending guests to meet young professionals from diverse sectors in a festive ambiance, and to attend a ballet performance at a preferential rate. The ticket includes appetizers, one drink per guest and a ticket to The Nutcracker in category C (Mezzanine Section).
