Star Society

Star Society

The Star Society is a visionary group of ballet enthusiasts who have made special commitments in their estate plans to ensure the Joffrey’s remarkable work continues for generations to come.

You become a member of the Joffrey’s Star Society when you notify us of any planned gift from your estate. You will receive invitations to special events and join others in your shared commitment to the Joffrey. Members can choose to be recognized publicly or remain anonymous.

A gift from your estate is a deferred commitment and remains in your control during your lifetime; you can modify your estate plan at any time.

The Joffrey is a nonprofit tax-exempt organization; assets from your estate can transfer to the Joffrey without being taxed, which can be advantageous for you and your heirs.

Planning a gift through your will is easy. It gives you the satisfaction of providing for the Joffrey’s future, and it costs nothing during your lifetime.

Star Society Benefits Include

  • Recognition in Joffrey’s Season Programs
  • Invitations to exclusive Star Society appreciation events
  • Insider Updates from the Joffrey team
  • Opportunities to connect with Joffrey Company Artists and the Artistic Team

For any assistance in donating, please contact donate@joffrey.org

Leaving a legacy through being a Star Society member is a relatively easy way to give. This includes commitments in estate plans, a gift in your will or trust, naming Joffrey as a beneficiary of a retirement account, a donor-advised fund, or a life insurance policy.
