<div><strong>Sponsor Every Step: Help Nathalie dance all her routines this year</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’ve ever wondered whether your help really matters—here it does: your gift becomes music, lights, and courage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Last year we raised $1,650. This season we’re going all-in so Nathalie can dance 3 solos, 1 duos, and 2 groups at each event. Our all-in goal is $6,500. Would it be a bad idea to give $50 today (or whatever feels right) and forward this to two friends who love the arts?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Before you decide: </strong>You might think “another fundraiser,” “what if they miss the goal?” or “my donation is too small.” Those are fair—we asked them ourselves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our vulnerable truth:</strong> We can’t pay for every stage, but we can fuel all the effort. Nathalie trains, stumbles, and tries again. Her dream is to dance professionally, and competing is the road she must take now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What your help covers:</strong> At each event she performs 3 solos, 1 duos, 2 groups—more rehearsals, more costumes, more entry fees, and more chances to grow on stage. We’ll post practice clips and receipts every 72 hours so you can see the impact.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Entry fees (per dancer, by event):</strong>

</div>

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Would it be a bad idea to commit $50 today (or whatever is comfortable) and forward this to two friends?</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>Would it be out of place for a local business to sponsor $250–$1,000 in exchange for public thanks and a logo on her warm-up bag?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />

</div>

</div>

</div>
<div><strong><em>Two voices</em></strong>
</div>
<div><strong>From us, her family:</strong>
</div>
<div>The first time Nathalie stepped into the lights, she wore a borrowed costume. Her hands were small in ours, shaking just a little, and she whispered, “If they look at me, I’ll dance.” She did—and we’ve been watching her choose courage ever since.
</div>
<div>What people don’t see are the early alarms and the late-night stretches on the living-room floor; the homework finished in studio lobbies; the taped toes, the do-overs after missed turns, the quiet tears that turn into one more try. We’ve watched our daughter learn that discipline is a kind of love: counting music on the bus, practicing arms while brushing her teeth, thanking her coaches after a hard rehearsal. Every time she walks toward a stage, we see that same brave little whisper in her eyes.
</div>
<div>This season she’s reaching higher—3 solos, 1 duos, and 2 groups at each event—which means more training, more entry fees, more costumes, and more chances to grow. We can’t fund every step alone, but we can promise honesty and effort: we’ll share short rehearsal clips and redacted receipts so you can see exactly how your gift becomes motion.
</div>
<div>We’re inviting you into her circle of light. Every gift—and every share—is one more spotlight warming that stage. If you gave before, thank you for believing when the dream was smaller. If you’re meeting her for the first time, thank you for looking her way today. You’re helping a child turn courage into art.
</div>
<div><strong>From Nathalie:</strong>
</div>
<div>Hi, I’m Nathalie. When I dance, the world feels clear—even the nerves, the sweaty palms, the second tries. I love the click of the music starting, the breath before a turn, the moment my feet find the floor exactly where I hoped they would. This year I’ll perform 3 solos, 1 duos, and 2 group pieces at each event. I’m practicing before school, after dinner, and sometimes in the living room.
</div>
<div>Your help doesn’t just pay a fee; it becomes my coach’s corrections, the costume that lets me tell a story, the ride that gets me there on time, the confidence to step into the light. I promise to work hard, to be kind to my teammates, to keep up my grades, and to show you my progress with little videos and updates so you can see how you’re part of every improvement.
</div>
<div>If you can donate, thank you. If you can share my page <strong>#nath.ydance</strong>, thank you. I will carry your name with me when I bow—and I’ll show you every step of the way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>If you made it here, you’re already part of her audience. We’re 130 friends × $50 away from a full season. One gift. One share. One more light on her stage. Moments like this are built by many small yeses. Would it be a bad idea to be one of the 130 today?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>FAQ </strong>
</div>
<div>•	Why don’t you list competition names?
</div>
<div>Some events restrict public use of their name. To respect those rules, we use neutral labels. We’re happy to share details privately with any supporter—just DM us.
</div>
<div>•	How do I know where the money goes?
</div>
<div>We post redacted receipts + short rehearsal clips every 72 hours and keep a running ledger in Updates.
</div>
<div>•	What if you miss the goal?
</div>
<div>We fund events in order of urgency (entry fees → travel → extras). Nothing is wasted; we’ll show how every dollar is applied.

<div><strong>Patrocina cada paso: ayuda a Nathalie a bailar todas sus rutinas este año</strong>

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Si alguna vez dudaste si tu ayuda realmente importa—aquí sí: tu aporte se convierte en música, luces y valentía.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El año pasado recaudamos $1,650. Esta temporada vamos con todo para que Nathalie baile 3 solos, 1 dúo y 2 grupos en cada evento. Nuestra meta total es $6,500. ¿Sería una mala idea dar $50 hoy (o lo que te sea cómodo) y reenviar esto a dos amigos que amen el arte?
</div>
<div><strong>Antes de decidir:</strong> quizá pienses “otro fondo más”, “¿y si no llegan?” o “mi donación es muy pequeña”. Son dudas válidas—nosotros mismos nos las hicimos.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Nuestra verdad vulnerable:</strong> no podemos pagar cada escenario, pero sí todo el esfuerzo. Nathalie entrena, tropieza y vuelve a intentar. Su sueño es bailar profesionalmente, y competir es el camino que debe tomar ahora.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Qué cubre tu ayuda: </strong>en cada evento baila 3 solos, 1 dúo y 2 grupos—más ensayos, más vestuario, más inscripciones y más oportunidades de crecer en el escenario.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Publicaremos clips de práctica y recibos cada 72 horas para que veas el impacto.
</div>

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>¿Sería una mala idea comprometer $50 hoy (o lo que te resulte cómodo) y reenviarlo a dos amigos?</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>¿Estaría fuera de lugar que un negocio local patrocine $250–$1,000 a cambio de agradecimientos públicos y su logo en su bolsa de calentamiento?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>“Patrocina un paso” </strong>
</div>
<div>•	$15 – Calentamiento: gel/calcetines para pies → aterrizar sin dolor
</div>
<div>•	$25 – Ensayo: peinado/maquillaje → confianza bajo las luces
</div>

</div>
<div>•	$75 – Coaching privado: 1 sesión 1:1 → pulir giros y líneas
</div>

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Dos voces</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>De parte de nosotros, su familia</strong>
</div>
<div>La primera vez que Nathalie entró a las luces, llevaba un traje prestado. Su mano, pequeña y un poco temblorosa, apretó las nuestras y susurró: “Si me miran, yo bailo.” Lo hizo—y desde entonces la hemos visto elegir el valor una y otra vez.
</div>
<div>Lo que no se ve son las alarmas tempranas y los estiramientos nocturnos en la sala; las tareas hechas en la recepción del estudio; los dedos vendados, los otra vez después de un giro fallido, las lágrimas silenciosas que se convierten en un intento más. Hemos visto a nuestra hija entender que la disciplina es una forma de amor: contar la música en el autobús, practicar brazos mientras se cepilla los dientes, agradecer a sus coaches después de un ensayo duro, animar a una compañera que se siente atrás.
</div>
<div>Esta temporada apunta más alto: 3 solos, 1 dúo y 2 grupos en cada evento—más entrenamiento, más inscripciones, más vestuario y más oportunidades de crecer. No podemos financiar cada paso solos, pero sí podemos prometer honestidad y esfuerzo: compartiremos clips cortos y recibos editados para que veas exactamente cómo tu ayuda se vuelve movimiento.
</div>
<div>Te invitamos a entrar en su círculo de luz. Cada donación—y cada compartir—es un foco más que calienta ese escenario. Si ya diste antes, gracias por creer cuando el sueño era más pequeño. Si la conoces hoy, gracias por mirarla con cariño. Estás ayudando a una niña a convertir el valor en arte.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>De Nathalie</strong>
</div>
<div>Hola, soy Nathalie. Cuando bailo, el mundo se aclara—hasta los nervios, las manos sudorosas y los segundos intentos. Me encanta el clic cuando la música comienza, el aire antes de un giro, el instante en que mis pies caen justo donde los imaginé. Este año bailaré 3 solos, 1 dúo y 2 piezas grupales en cada evento. Practico antes de la escuela, después de cenar y, a veces, en la sala.
</div>
<div>Tu ayuda no solo paga una cuota; se convierte en cosas que siento: las correcciones de mi coach en una clase privada, el vestuario que me deja contar la historia, el viaje que me hace llegar a tiempo, la confianza para quedarme en bambalinas y respirar. Prometo trabajar duro, ser buena compañera, mantener mis notas y mostrarte mi progreso con videos y actualizaciones—para que veas cómo tu apoyo se vuelve pasos.
</div>
<div>Si puedes donar, gracias. Si puedes compartir mi página <strong>#nath.ydance</strong>, gracias. Llevaré tu nombre conmigo cuando haga la reverencia—y te enseñaré cada paso del camino.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Si llegaste hasta aquí, ya eres parte de su audiencia. Estamos a 130 amigos × $50 de una temporada completa. Un regalo. Un compartir. Una luz más en su escenario. Momentos como este se construyen con muchos pequeños “sí”.</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>¿Sería una mala idea ser uno de esos 130 hoy?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Preguntas frecuentes</strong>
</div>
<div>•	¿Por qué no listan los nombres de las competencias?
</div>
<div>Algunos eventos restringen el uso público de su nombre. Para respetar esas reglas, usamos etiquetas neutras. Con gusto compartimos detalles en privado con cualquier persona que apoye—envíanos un mensaje.
</div>
<div>•	¿Cómo sé adónde va el dinero?
</div>
<div>Publicamos recibos editados + clips cortos de ensayo cada 72 horas y mantenemos un registro en Actualizaciones.
</div>
<div>•	¿Qué pasa si no llegan a la meta?
</div>
<div>Priorizamos por urgencia (inscripciones → viaje → extras). Nada se desperdicia; mostraremos cómo se aplica cada dólar.
