Black Boys Can Dance! Nataniel is going to Boston!

Donation protected
Thank you for taking out the time to review our campaign!

Hi! My name is Nicholle. I am the mother of Nataniel Isaiah Taylor, who was recently accepted into the 2021 Summer Dance Program at Boston Ballet. The Boston Ballet School is partnered with one of the nation's most prestigious companies and has one of the top programs for young developing dancers.


https://www.bostonballet.org/Home/Education/Program/Summer-Programs/Summer-Dance-Program-Boston 

Nataniel is a 13-year-old Black ballet dancer, born and raised in Syracuse, NY.
His training and passion for dance was crafted at  'Dance Theater of Syracuse'  four years ago and he has, since, never once stopped moving. :). When he first began dancing, we knew he loved it, but we didn’t know how much he’d truly take to it. Nataniel was born to do this. He breathes it. And opportunities like the one he's being offered to take part in are far and few between. His first opportunity in a program like this would be irreplaceable to his development and dreams of becoming a professional dancer. 


We're humbled, as a family, that Nataniel was able to secure a partial scholarship to the program. However, even with our family's finances, the 5-Week In-Person Summer Intensive is out of our respective budget. 

So. . . We're calling on and reaching out to community to help raise the additional costs for Nataniel to continue his journey as an aspiring ballet dancer. 

Help Nataniel attend his first-ever summer dance program! The kid is only 13! and already nailing auditions!  already realizing his potential! already envisioning his dreams and realizing his dopeness!

Please consider donating to that Black and youthful future! 


We know that, during these times, things are tight for everyone. 
Whatever you are able to give, whether it be funding, a quick share on your social media, or guidance towards finding sponsorship for young dancers, will be received with loving arms. 

Thank you again for taking out the time to review our campaign.
We're excited! And manifesting that this is gonna happen! 

Be well.
Love and light. :)
