On Dec 2, Dance Images by BJ was honoured to present a cheque to Dr. Miller from Creative Kids in the amount of $9,200. This money was raised by dancers and families from Dance Images, through their annual Kids Helping Kids Dance-a-thon.
This was the seventh year for the Dance-a-thon and Dance Images has been proud to coordinate the event each year. Over the past seven years, the event has donated over $74,000 to Creative Kids in Saskatchewan.
The Dance-a-thon took place on Oct. 27 at the studio and was greatly attended by dancers from ages 3-18. Dancers from the senior class organized the event in coordination with the studio's assistant director Shauna Bzdel. On the day of the event, dancers in the Dance Express Troupe worked to provide a day filled
with fun and laughter. Dance Images staff all donated their time throughout the day as well to help make sure the event was a great success.
Throughout the day, different age groups of children attended and enjoyed dancing, games and snacks while contributing to a great cause. Creative Kids is a non-profit organization in Saskatchewan that helps provide funding for families in need to allow their children to take part in the arts, like dance, music, art, and more.
Dance Images believes that teaching children to be selfless and to think of others in need is a very important quality and one of the highlights of the event. Dancers from the studio are very lucky that their families are able to provide them with the opportunity to dance, so teaching our young dancers to be appreciative of this is
something everyone can be proud of.
The annual Kids Helping Kids Dance-a-thon is a wonderful way to give back to the community and instill a sense of pride within the dancers from Dance Images.
Thank you to everyone who supported this event and helped to make it a huge success!
