We all have dreams that inspire, excite, and empower us. As you read this, one 17 year old high school senior\'s dream is coming true. Taylor Fikes, an accomplished ballerina, has just received a rare invitation to attend The Bolshoi Ballet Academy in Moscow, Russia. Bolshoi is one of the oldest and most established schools for classical ballet in the world.

International students are not offered scholarships or financial assistance of any kind, therefore, Taylor's family must raise $18,500 by the end of October. Her mother has created an online fundraising campaign that, with your assistance, can garner the nationwide attention necessary to make this dream a reality.
