Help Nicaya get to New York!

Donation protected
My name is Nicaya & I am 12 years old. I've been dancing since i was 2 years old. I started dancing competitively when I was 6. My reputation for being a tough competitor and outstanding performer lead to me being a cast member on Lifetime's reality tv show, Dance Moms. But right before my 12th birthday, I decided to stop dancing competitively and to focus more on my technique. I am now in a pre-professional training program at COCA and in just 6 months, my technique has improved so much! I recently auditioned for & was accepted into several summer intensives including: Joffrey, Ruth Page, Milwaukee Ballet, Cincinnati Ballet, The Ailey School, and the Dance Theatre of Harlem (DTH). Even though my dream is to dance for Ailey, I chose to attend DTH for the summer since I'm not old enough to stay in the dorms at Ailey. But I will have plenty of time with Ailey in the future! I was given a partial scholarship to attend DTH but it will still cost my mom a lot for me to attend. My big brother is leaving for college this summer, so I want to try to raise most of the money on my own so my mom doesn't have to worry so much. I need to raise $4000 for room & board, tuition, transportation, pointe shoes and uniforms. Any donation will get me one grand jétè closer to Harlem! Thanks so much for your help and God bless!
