Let's get Kelsi to Los Angeles

Donation protected
In the words of Colin Powell. . .  "A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work."

Kelsi auditioned to participate in the prestigious Debbie Allen Dance Summer Intensive Academy and was selected from hundreds of dancers.   The Summer Intensive will take place in Los Angeles, California.  Dancers from across the United States and around the world flock to DADA to be trained, inspired and transformed by Ms. Allen and her world-renowned faculty. Students work to improve their technical skills and broaden their dance vocabulary over the course of the four week program.

Kelsi's hunger to be a professional dancer has led her here.  Please help me get her there!   The funds raised through this campaign will help to cover tuition, housing and transportation.  No amount is too small.  As a matter of fact if you have other ways in which you would be willing to assist, your help is greatly appreciated.  ie:  skymiles, employee discounts, etc.  (yes we need those hook-ups!)

For those reading this who have any influence over our youth, please support them in their endeavors. Last year when discussing her dreams and aspirations, Kelsi stated that she wanted to visit L.A. to take dance classes(true story) who knew that this year she would be given that opportunity!  God hears the desires of our hearts!   I know that with our village of family and friends this opportunity will happen for Kelsi and we all see her bless stages around the world one day.

Our deadline to pay her fees is approaching quickly, please do not hesitiate to give. The deadline is April 10, 2015.

This comprehensive intensive is six days a week and covers  Ballet, Character, Horton, Graham, Dunham, Jazz, Tap, Flamenco, Hip Hop and Musical Theater, and Pointe classes.  Additionally, students can expect an array of surprise guest teachers and artists, lectures and workshops once a week. (Last year Misty Copeland graced the students.)

Thanks in advance for your contribution, It means more than you can imagine.
