Columbia Dance needs your support

Columbia Dance is a not-for-profit 501[c]3 organization. Tuition and performance revenue account for a substantial portion of the organization’s annual budget. However, like most professional and community based cultural organizations, Columbia Dance must rely on the generosity of individual donors and the fundraising prowess of it staff and board to meet all of its financial goals. All contributions to Columbia Dance are tax deductible to the full extent of the law.

Priority projects for 2007-08 that require supplementary funding include:

Hiring an Administrative Assistant

Columbia Dance is growing exponentially in terms of enrollment and activities. One of the organization’s top priorities this year is to find an individual who can provide all of the administrative support needed to keep up with this growth. This position will need to be initially funded through donations and grants. Fundraising goal this season for this project: $12000.00.

Enhancing the performance capabilities of the large studio

We have great plans for using our large studio as a convertible performance space for concerts and choreographic projects. The long term goal is to have the studio properly equipped with lighting, sound and scenic equipment. Fundraising goal this season for this project: $6000.00.
