I've have witnessed this amazing non profit program turn young boys and girls into self confident disciplined students in the art of dance. This organization somehow makes it affordable to the inner city children of Detroit, God bless them! But Ballet Renaissance needs our help financially! They give these children first class teachers, they bring in dancers from New York for master classes, they provide a professional space for their shows and their costumes are professional. Please continue to financially help this amazing program to grow, strengthen and bring joy to these amazing children. Come just once to see them perform and you'll fall in awe of this organization.
Ballet Renaissance has been such a significant part of my life for the past 20 years. I love to give through this organization as a volunteer and as a supporter. I love to watch the students grow in confidence and in joy and to experience the community become inspired. It feels good to give to, and through, this inspiring organization and to be a part of helping make the world a better place. Thank you Ballet Renaissance for all the joy you have brought to my life and to the lives of others, and thank you to all of you who have assisted and supported and participated in so many varied and significant ways over the last 20 years. Here's to 20 more.
