Hi, my name is Wells and I've always had big dreams.

I am 12 years old and I love ballet more than anything. I started dancing when I was really little and ever since then, I've worked as hard as I can every single day to get better. Ballet isn't always easy and it takes a lot of practice, discipline and determination. It's what makes me happiest!

This year something I've always dreamed about actually happened. I was accepted into the Royal Ballet School's summer intensive in London.

The Royal Ballet School is one of the most prestigious ballet schools in the entire world, and getting accepted feels like a dream come true. When I found out, I was so excited and could barely believe it! Opportunities like this for a small town kid don't come around often, and I know how lucky I am.

This summer is extra special because I was also invited to train with the American Ballet Theatre in New York City. My mom and dad have been working hard to make that trip happen for me, and you know I am extremely grateful for that. Doing both programs is really expensive, and I asked if I can help with London.

That's why I'm starting this fundraiser. I really want to be able to get to London and train at The Royal Ballet School.

Getting to go to London would mean I get to learn from some of the best teachers in the world, meet other dancers who love ballet like I do, and take a big step toward my dream of becoming a professional dancer one day.

If you're able to help, even a small amount, it would mean so much to me. And if you can't donate - that's ok! Sharing this would help more than you know.

Thank you for believing and supporting my dream! I promise to make you proud!
