Ashe's last summer - Please Help!

Donation protected
Hello everyone!

I hope that everyone has had a great year and that you are looking forward to the summer! I sure am.  These are my last few months in high school and college is just a few months away!

I am here to update you on my dance journey once again. This summer I am attending the prestigious intensive, American Ballet Theater (ABT) in Austin, Texas. This will be a one-month classical ballet program where I know I will get to grow and learn with ABT teachers and associates. I will be able to further my ballet technique just in time for college. I have been going to many college auditions in the past few months. I have not made the final decision yet, but I made it past three rounds of the Juilliard audition before getting cut which I’m proud to say is pretty far and I will audition again next year. I was accepted into the University of the Arts with a scholarship and I have been waitlisted to Dominican University of California and Boston Conservatory. I am anxious to hear the final result, and I am also nervous about making the final decision for what my life will be the next four years.

I wanted to come here to thank all of my supporters who have provided so many opportunities for me these past three years, and to say that your support has gotten me very far. I have auditioned for ABT every year and with your help, I have finally gained enough experience at summer intensives and at my dance studio to reach the level it takes to attend their intensive, so thank you for that. Another big update is that I am now attending the world famous Alvin Ailey American Dance School for the remainder of my senior year. I am getting to study with great teachers and I am getting to perform with great dancers.

I am asking for your help again for the ABT Austin, Texas intensive this summer.  Two very special supporters have already paid for the tuition, but now we need help with room and board, air fare to Texas, daily and weekend spending, dance clothes and pointe shoes.  The extra spending is all very expensive. As you know from previous GoFundMe campaigns my mother and father help as much as possible, but we need your help to get me to these intensives across the country. If you could spare anywhere from $1 to any amount it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much for reading this update.  I hope you enjoy this excerpt of my audition solo.

Please help to share my campaign to your friends and family, and come back for any updates.

I am so lucky to have you support!
