Please, Support Sean’s Talent!

We are launching a fundraising campaign to support Sean’s successful participation in Blackpool, England this April. Together, we can make Sean’s dream come true!

Sean is one of the top Pre-Teen dancers in the US in Ballroom and Latin. Sean’s dream is to represent the USA at the Junior Blackpool Dance Festival in Blackpool, England in April of 2022 (https://www.blackpooldancefestival.com/the-junior-blackpool-dance-festival). Blackpool is the world’s most prestigious ballroom competition, which every athlete strives to win, but participating is already a huge achievement. Just last year, there were over 33 countries represented with over 400 couples.

Financial Need:

So far, Sean’s family has been covering his training and competition costs and will continue to do so. However, they will need your help with the high costs due to the high caliber competition and international travel to Blackpool, England. The total estimated need to make this event possible for Sean is $11,250. Sean’s parents will contribute $3,000; therefore, we need your help and support in raising $8,250 to make his dream come true.

TRAINING: $3,500

Sean will need intense training for the next three months before the competition in England. Sean trains individually and as a couple. He will need to continue working with his immediate instructors (Ballroom and Latin) and Master coaches (Ballroom and Latin). The average price of a lesson is $95; for Master coaching is between $175-$250.

Costuming and Shoes: $1,500

Sean will need two sets of competition attire and dance shoes for each style of dancing, Ballroom, and Latin.

Competition Registration Fees: $750

Travel: $3,500

Sean is a minor, and he will need to travel with at least one parent. The trip includes roundtrip airfare, trains, and car rental for in-country travel.

Lodging: $2,000

Sean’s family will share a one-bedroom apartment in England, which they will rent for ten days.

Thank you for your generous gift to Sean’s campaign. We are thrilled to have your support. Through your donation, Sean will accomplish his dream of competing at Blackpool. You truly make a difference for him, and we are incredibly grateful!
