Carlota in Bolshoi

Hi! My name is Carlota Rodrigues, i'm 16 years old and i am from Portugal.

Ever since i was little I knew that when I grew up I would become a ballet and Contemporary Dancer. But for that i need to work really hard every single day! This year i have the amazing opportunity to be studying at one of the Best BALLET schools IN the world! The Bolshoi Ballet Academy in Moscow! I've been working with amazing teachers and i've improved so much IN only a few months.

However, Portugal is going through some bad times and I ask for sponsors and they said no due to the taxes increased and the cut pay checks . I also have one brother in college and a 7 years old sister and its getting really hard for my parents.

So please, if you contribute with a little bit and I can continue my studies here and be one less step away of making my dream come true!

You probably know what it feels like to have a dream and to do anything to make it happen.

Dreams can come true, if you fight for them, thats what I'm doing!
