Alina's Cirque du Soleil dream

Alina Shyshkivska is a 15-year-old girl who arrived in Canada 1 year ago. While in her native country, she took gymnastic lessons to work towards her goal of becoming part of a performance group like Cirque du Soleil.

When Alina arrived in Canada, she performed one of her routines on a television show. Two people in the audience were inspired enough to agree to sponsor her for a year at Studio Cirque in London, Ontario to keep her dream alive. According to her coaches, her progress has been amazing.

Unfortunately, the year of sponsorship has come to an end. Being newcomers to Canada, her family is not in a financial position to pay for the lessons, especially since there are two other siblings to provide for. She currently doesn't have the documentation that would allow her to find other means to obtain the funds. She is at a dead end.

So, after so much improvement, does all of this progress stop suddenly? Why not help Alina achieve her dream? She is willing to do all of the hard work. All she needs is the opportunity.
