Drosselmeyer's Gift Scholarship Fund
Drosselmeyer’s Gift is a scholarship award created in honor of Keith Poss, our "Uncle Drosselmeyer extraordinaire". Keith was a community leader with such a giving heart. He loved working with our dancers. Watching them grow from young Angels and Cookies, to one of "his Clara's", to a member of the corps, brought Keith so much joy. Keith's involvement in our productions gave our students the sense that what they were doing in the ballet school was important. It was not just 'a kid's show' to Keith. He instilled so much pride in them through his support and encouragement. He took every child seriously and he never forgot a conversation he had with them. Keith's passing will leave a hole in our hearts and our school community and we hope that this scholarship will remind us all to be a bit more like him. Recipients demonstrate Keith's attributes of kindness, connection and community.
In addition to the Drosselmeyer's Gift Scholarship Fund, Integral also provides financial aid and work study aid for students who are facing financial hardship. For the 2025-2026 school year, Integral Ballet has committed $15288 to scholarship recipients and $11340 to work-study recipients.
