Gifts in Memory

Celebrate a life by supporting Scottish Opera

There are a number of ways to make a gift in memory of a loved one to Scottish Opera.

The Scottish Opera Endowment Trust was established in 1971 to help make opera projects and productions possible. The Endowment Trust invests gifts carefully, gradually growing the capital and generating income to support the Company and its activities, ensuring your gift will support Scottish Opera for generations to come.

Did you know? You can make a gift at any time to the Scottish Opera Endowment Trust, either in memory of a loved one or simply as a one-off donation.

What could my gift support?

Gifts left in Memory support the great breadth of our activity and are directed to the Scottish Opera Endowment Trust. The Endowment Trust invests these gifts carefully, gradually growing the capital and generating income to support the Company where we need it most. This ensures your gift will help sustain Scottish Opera for generations to come.

Established in 1971, the Scottish Opera Endowment Trust has helped to make – and continues to make – innumerable projects and productions possible; these are just a few:

  • Main Stage Productions – Performances of full-scale opera in major venues throughout Scotland and beyond
  • Supporting Young Talent – Young singers, repetiteurs, costume makers and composers
  • Scottish Opera's Production Studios – Where the magic begins and our artisans build, paint and create our sets, props, costumes and wigs
  • World-class Outreach and Education Work – Including primary school tours and dementia friendly workshops
  • New Opera Commissions and Premieres – Exciting, original work from new creative teams

Make a gift to the Scottish Opera Endowment Trust

You can help make opera projects and productions possible by allowing us to invest your gift, gradually growing the capital and generating income to support the Company where we need it most for generations to come.

If you would prefer to make your gift over the phone, please call Carole Gallen on 0141 242 0615.

A gift to the Orchestra, Wardrobe or Stage Departments
