Funding received through sponsorships and donations on National Dance Day provides the necessary support for our community programs. American Dance Movement makes grants to community organizations, providing dance education programs to children in underserved communities within the US. Through its grant recipients, American Dance Movement seeks to give children the experience of dance, educate them about the many styles of dance, and to expose them to the lifelong benefits that dance has to offer.

In doing so, American Dance Movement is able to:

·Increase access to high-quality dance education across the United States

·Increase appreciation for dance

·Share the benefits and joy of dance, particularly to those who may not have otherwise had the opportunity to experience it

Not only does National Dance Day provide free access to dance for everyone, it also allows the community to come together and raise money fora great cause.
