Why Your Year-End Gift Matters: Help Dance Arts Academy Foundation Transform More Young Lives in 2026

As we enter the giving season, the Dance Arts Academy Foundation invites our community to make a meaningful impact on young children and families through the power of dance, wellness, and arts education. Your generosity helps us expand access to high quality dance programs, school residencies, and wellness experiences that inspire confidence, creativity, and belonging.

Why Year End Giving Is So Important

Year end gifts are more than seasonal generosity. They directly fund the next year’s programming. In 2026, the Dance Arts Academy Foundation plans to grow its reach across Los Angeles County and Orange County, deepen community wellness initiatives, and introduce new opportunities for students in historically under resourced neighborhoods, including planned programming in Compton.

Every donation to the Dance Arts Academy allows us to serve more young people and families who rely on movement, community, and mentorship to thrive.
