Individual Giving
Principal’s Circle

The Principal’s Circle, formerly Ansin Society, is a committed group of supporters, community leaders, and partners whose significant annual contributions are the cornerstone of the Company’s philanthropic support. The Principal’s Circle was launched in the Company’s historic 30th anniversary season with a gift from the late Charlie Cinnamon to celebrate the extraordinary vision, tenacity, and generosity of our Founder, Toby Lerner Ansin. Recognition represents cumulative giving, including gifts and pledges, during the fourteen months prior to April 2024.
