- Be a certified 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization.
- Serve the needs of children and families in your community.

Limited Availability
The Big Apple Circus makes every effort to fulfill as many requests as we can. However, as a not-for-profit organization ourselves, we depend on ticket revenues to support our organization. Unfortunately, some eligible applications may be denied.
