COSTUMES WANTED FOR SPECIAL KIDS!!

Do you have gently used recital costumes that you would like to donate to a great cause? Breanna’s Gift is an Arts Endowment program for kids with serious and terminal illness. Our Miss Shelley is the dance teacher for the program. She teaches dance to special kids at the Ronald McDonald House and Children’s Hospital. This summer WDC donated extra costumes that we had on hand for Shelley to give to her students. The kids loved them!! Shelley suggested tha we give our WDC dancers the opportunity to do the same. The costumes will be hand washed before they are passed out, so they cannot have feather trim attached. Donations are tax deductible. If you would like a receipt, ask for one at the desk when you donate your costume(s). If you have any questions, please email the studio. Thanks for your help!
