Charlottesville Ballet’s Dancers for Dancers (D4D) program has reached the 2025 goal of raising $25,000! Check out some of the creative ways our students raised money to support their peers this year:
THANK YOU to all who donated and to each of our students and families who participated!
As a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, we are committed to making dance accessible to our community. Each year Charlottesville Ballet Academy typically gives $300,000 in scholarships and financial aid from the Keith Lee Dance Fund as part of our mission to ensure that dance is something everyBODY can enjoy. D4D fosters a community where students help raise the funds that contribute towards their peers’ scholarships. To date, our students have raised more than $100K through six fundraisers!
