Support YDR's Programs
All programs provided by Young Dancers in Repertory are either free and open to the public or priced at a bare minimum. Maintaining this kind of accessibility is an important part of YDR's mission, however it is not easy to sustain. With your help YDR can continue to provide quality dance and arts programming at a low or no cost to constituents.

Meet the Department of Cultural Affairs' Challenge
The NYC Department of Cultural Affairs has awarded YDR a $5,000 challenge grant  to expand our ongoing program, A Century of Culture - Understanding Our Past... Living the Present... Creating Our Future.  What is the Challenge?  YDR must raise an additional $5,000 for the same project to receive the award.  We invite you to make a contribution to help us meet this challenge.

A Century of Culture explores the cultural heritage of Sunset Park’s myriad immigrant populations through dance, music and visual art.  With this award, Young Dancers in Repertory will collaborate with the Annabella Gonzalez Dance Company and dancer-choreographer, Nadira – professionals with expertise in, respectively, Mexican and Middle Eastern dance and culture.  Through Master Classes, residencies, and the staging and recreation of traditional dances, the project will look at the contributions these cultures have made world-wide. 

Sponsor-A-Dancer 
YDR's scholarship program.  The fund supports students at YDR's Center for Dance Studies who demonstrate a love of dance and financial need.  Your contribution will allow these students to continue their studies in dance without financial burdens.
