Named fund

A Named Fund is a unique and fiscally attractive way to contribute in a highly personal manner to the future of Dutch National Opera & Ballet.

If your heart is drawn to a specific theme within our companies, such as the maintenance of our costumes or the training of young talent, then a Named Fund is an interesting possibility. You are free to choose the name of the fund, whether it's your own name or the name of a loved one. Establishing a fund as a gift for or in memory of a loved one is also an option.

How it works

You establish a Named Fund with a minimum contribution of € 50.000. This can be done through a one-time donation or in five annual instalments.
You personally select a goal within Dutch National Opera & Ballet to which your gift will be allocated. Perhaps you prefer to support our world premieres, encourage young talent, or contribute to introducing young people to our art forms?
Dutch National Opera & Ballet takes care of the financial administration and ensures that your money is well spent. We keep you closely informed, of course.
A Named Fund is financially attractive: due to tax benefits, the gift costs you a net amount of € 5.841 per year in the most favourable case.
You can name the fund after yourself, a (deceased) loved one, or we can choose a name together that reflects what the fund makes possible, such as 'The Costume Fund.'
As the holder of a Named Fund, you enjoy special and exclusive privileges at Dutch National Opera & Ballet. We involve you personally and closely in the mission of your fund. Moreover, you automatically become a member of the Patrons Circle. Depending on the amount of your contribution, you enjoy the privileges of a Platinum or Diamond Patron with the associated benefits.

Schedule a meeting

Establishing a Donor Advised Fund is a very personal matter. We would be delighted to discuss your wishes personally with you. We warmly invite you to schedule a meeting with one of our relationship managers.
