SHARE THE LOVE
Note from Ranya:
While "admission" to this show is free, you can make a donation of any amount you are comfortable with, for the Ginger City equity scholarship fund, to benefit dancers in the next coaching series!
Any amount is genuinely appreciated, and will be matched 1:1 by me. More than $1000 of scholarship aid was distributed in this year's BYB series, from kind donors ...who helped make this show even more fabulous through their support! My goal is to surpass the $500 in donations we received in the last campaign, from 25 different individuals, to keep my coaching programs accessible to more talented dancers, especially those who might not have had the opportunities I did in learning on the job in the Arabic nightclubs of New York. Many thanks! - Ranya
