outreach
Andrea's School of Dance believes any child who has the desire to study dance should have that opportunity. We hope to pass on the gift of dance through the Pass It On and Jesus Hugs funds available here at the studio.
To make these programs even more successful and offer dance to as many children as we possibly can, we need the help of others in the community. If you are interested in donating to the Pass it On or the Jesus Hug fund or would like more information, please use our contact page or email Andrea directly at andream@andreasschoolofdance.com.
pass it on fund
Our Pass It On Fund was established by members of our MainStreet Dance Company with winnings the students earned at various dance competitions. Their goal was to pass on their love of dance to another dancer who may not be able to afford to study dance without financial assistance. The fund is used to assist new students in paying tuition as well as current students who may have had a disruption in their lives and may not be able to continue to participate in dance without financial assistance. Please speak with Andrea for more information regarding eligibility and sponsorship.
jesus hugs fund
The Jesus Hugs Fund was created through the generous gift of an anonymous donor. This fund has been created to aid those students who find themselves in need of financial assistance to continue with their study of the art of dance. To qualify, the student must maintain a GPA of 88% for the entire time they are the recipient of the fund, be an active participating member of their faith community, and if 12 years old or older, complete 4 hours of community service while being a recipient of the fund. The students will be required to complete an application form to be considered for approval. The form will ask which class they would like to be sponsored for, why they are in need, and they will be required to complete an essay explaining “What the Jesus Fund Sponsorship will do for me.”
