The NYCDA Foundation from a parent’s prospective has been truly a blessing as it has allowed my daughter the opportunity to follow her dream at the college of her choice that my wife and I would never have been able to provide. Just to be considered is an honor but being beneficiaries of this wonderful organization is a gift that no words of gratitude can ever be expressed!
Review from Guidestar
NYCDA Foundation literally changed my outlook regarding charitable donations. Because my daughter dances exclusively with the New York City Dance Alliance (for good reason), when I heard about the Foundation, what it does, and how it does it, donating to them became meaningful and relevant to me in a very personal way. As a lifetime supporter of the arts, I have been aware of the many obstacles that talented young artists face as they contemplate a career. Often a choice appears necessary between their art, and college. The NYCDA Foundation helps eliminate that unnecessary dichotomy by providing scholarship money for many talented and needy young men and women. Mr. Lanteri and his vision are inspiring to the dancers, as he is forever encouraging them to strive for personal growth personal growth, while at the same time espousing the lifelong value to an education.
Now, I can say that I truly feel a sense of purpose when making donations to this fine organization, and it has added to my life in a previously unknown way, as I now experience the satisfaction of knowing that I can partner with this amazing group to help make a difference in the world of these artists, and therefore to the world itself.
