Welcome from the
    Corporate Fund
    Board Chair
    Dennis A. Muilenburg
    Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
    The Boeing Company

    I am honored to begin my tenure as chair of the Kennedy Center’s
    Corporate Fund Board and proud to lead this national campaign that
    engages corporate leadership beyond the boardroom by investing in
    local communities, educating young minds and developing a creative
    economy. The Kennedy Center Corporate Fund provides a platform to
    broaden your company’s investment responsibly in the communities your
    employees, clients and customers live in by providing accessible artistic
    and educational programming. This support allows the Kennedy Center to
    serve as a leader in the performing arts, engaging artists and audiences in
    the United States and around the world.

    The Corporate Fund provides vital support to the Kennedy Center’s
    mission-driven artistic and education initiatives as the one financial
    instrument for raising and distributing unrestricted corporate gifts. With an
    annual fundraising goal of more than $4 million, this much-needed support
    allows the Kennedy Center to meet the creative needs of our country
    and develop an innovative and inspired workforce—all while providing an
    unparalleled benefit structure to corporate investors.

    For many years, Boeing has made a strategic investment in the Kennedy
    Center as part of our philanthropic commitment to the arts. I encourage
    you to read through this brochure to learn more about the Kennedy Center
    Corporate Fund, and consider the difference you could create for your
    company and communities around the world.

    As the Kennedy Center approaches its 50th anniversary in 2021, each
    year promises to be filled with innovative, high-caliber performances and
    initiatives. I look forward to welcoming you to the Corporate Fund.

As the nation’s living memorial to President Kennedy, the Kennedy Center is a government facility
and receives federal funding each year to pay for the maintenance and operation of the building.
However, the Center’s artistic programs and educational initiatives are paid for almost entirely
through ticket sales and the generous support of individuals, corporations, and private foundations.
