I hope this letter finds you well. I am reaching out to you with great excitement and hope as I share the incredible news about two talented sisters, Joanna and Jayda.

Both Joanna and Jayda have been dancing for about 12+ years at Miami City Ballet thanks to a scholarship with the Ballet Bus Program during the school year. Thanks to there hard work and great training they have both been accepted into prestigious 3-4 week summer intensive ballet programs in New York at some of the best dance schools in the country. Jayda is accepted at Alvin Ailey Junior Division Summer Intensive, and Joanna is accepted to Joffrey Ballet School Summer Intensive in NYC. This is a tremendous achievement for them, as it reflects their dedication, hard work, and exceptional talent in the field of dance over the last 12 years of training.

However, the journey to pursue their dreams comes with significant financial challenges. The costs associated with housing, tuition, and travel expenses are daunting, and unfortunately, beyond the means of our families alone.

That's why I am turning to our extened family, friends & community for support. I am reaching out to individuals and organizations like yours who share a passion for the arts and understand the transformative power of dance in young lives.

Your generosity can make a meaningful difference in Joanna and Jayda's lives. By contributing to their fundraising efforts, you can help alleviate the financial burden and allow these two budding dancers to seize this incredible opportunity without worry or constraint.

I invite you to join us in supporting Joanna and Jayda on their journey. Your donation, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and will directly impact their ability to pursue their passion for ballet at the highest level.

Thank you for considering this request. Your support will not only help two young dancers fulfill their dreams but also empower them to continue striving for excellence in their craft.

With gratitude,

Veronica
