The Dream:

Hi everyone! My name is Madison, and I am a 10-year-old aspiring musical theater performer. Music, songwriting, and performing are my absolute passions. I am so incredibly honored and excited to share that I have been accepted into the Summer Performing Arts with Juilliard 2026 program at Windermere Preparatory School!

The Goal:

This program is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to work directly with Juilliard faculty and connect with young artists from around the world. To get the full experience and benefit from the intense training and community immersion, I am hoping to attend as a boarding student.

We are working to raise $2,000 to cover the additional boarding costs for this two-week session by our March 18th deadline.

How You Can Help:

My family has been such an incredible support system. As they transition their small business, Dependable Heating and Air, into their new brand, TrueNorth Coastal Comfort, they have generously pledged to match every contribution made to my tuition fund through March 18th.

Whether you’re a local neighbor here in Charleston or a friend from afar, every contribution helps me take this big step toward my dreams. If you’re able to support my journey—whether it’s a donation, sharing this page, or sending words of encouragement—thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I can’t wait to learn, grow, and bring back everything I discover this summer to share with our community. Thank you for being part of my ensemble!
