Inspired Report to the Community

Donors and Supporters

The Banff Centre is honoured to recognize those donors and sponsors who contributed $1,000 or more to the Centre between April 1, 2007, and March 31, 2008. Through their generosity and vision, donors enable many aspects of The Banff Centre experience. They provide financial assistance to artists, and community and not-for-profit leaders who could not otherwise afford opportunities for professional development. They enable The Banff Centre to support new creative works, offer innovative programs, and maintain facilities. In addition to the names listed inside, The Banff Centre expresses appreciation to the many other donors, supporters, and volunteers whose contributions to the achievements of our alumni have been invaluable.
