Greetings Dance Families,
We are in need of your support to help us complete what we started!
I hope this note finds your dancers enjoying the fall semester where many have already witnessed the beautiful refinshed floor at First Baptist Church. As many of you know we made an amazing impact as a dance community and supported the refinishing of this floor last spring and work was completed over the summer. It is now such a pleasure for all dancing feet to enjoy movement on this gorgeous surface at the First Baptist Church! It was refinished specifially as a professional dance floor and it is perfect. We came together as a community and met our goal of $5000 back in June and the floors were refinished this summer. However we are not quite finished with this project - now the clean up!
Cleaning Fees: With all of the extensive floor work, we did not anticipate the extensive cleaning bill that would follow. The sanctuary and a few rooms off of the dance room had extensive dust from the refinishing that needs to be cleaned by a professional company. The Church has agreed to pay 50% of this bill however, the Dance School is responsible for $700. We need your help!
Finishing the Job: Help us officially finish and "clean up" this job - supporting Deborah and the Dance School to meet this cleaning bill need of $800 to cover the bill and the processing fees from GoFundMe.
Fall Giving: The fall is a season is marked with natural backdrops of gratitude. What better way to express thanks for all that Deborah brings to our families and children each year - help us support the final phase this project by offering a donation to meet the $800 cleanup campaign.
With thanks and gratitude to the whole community for your generous support last spring and now this fall!
Warmly,
Mandy
EXCITING NEWS FROM JUNE 2017: Our Floor Fund Goal has been reached! Yes!
1 Dance School / 21 Days / $5000 Goal: In just 21 days, as a dance school community fueled with the support of our Matching Funds family sponsor, we have met the Deborah Abel School of Dance Floor Fund goal of $5000. The critical floor work will be done this summer to be ready for all the dancing bodies to enter in the Fall and twist and jump and spin and leap safely! As you can imagine, Deborah is over the moon with your outflow of support.
Site Open to Receive Class Year-End Offerings: As mentioned earlier this week, many families would like to support the Dance School through donations to the campaign as their class gift/year-end offering of gratitude to Deborah. To allow for this thoughtful support to continue to flow, as you feel appropriate, the site will remain open until after the recital. The additional funds will support any added maintenance to the floor as well as any other needs of the Dance School. gofundme.com/floor-fund-deborahabeldancesc
Gratitude: It is amazing to see how powerful this community is - providing creative funding support, posting thoughtful words for Deborah and her School of Dance and simply your generosity. All of which speaks to the unique work of the Deborah Abel Dance School and to all of our collective dance family spirit!
Nuts and Bolts: Please know the number on the GoFundMe site does not show the reach of $5000 as the Matching Funds family support is not reflected in this location - but make no mistake our goal has been reached!
Many thanks to all and honored to be a part of such a community. Don't hesitate to reach out with any feedback, thoughts or questions.
See you Sunday!
