Help us "Activate a Dream"

“ Activate A Dream” is a fundraising appeal that will support the scholarship fund for the 2008-09 dance/music season. We are a place for dreamers and your support will help motivate hundreds of children to pursue their artistic dreams.  The performing arts is a window into the spirit, and your gift and the spirit in which it was given, will help us motivate hundreds of children to pursue their dreams. Our short-term goal is $10,000 and we are close. We have just a few weeks left to raise the remaining funds before the fall season begins. We are asking you for a small contribution in the range of $25 to $200. Of course, your contribution is 100% tax-deductible.  Thank you!"

Fall Schedule now available with DICF's new pre-professional dance program.

Our Mission

The Dream in Color Foundation has been organized to facilitate an arts program that strives to diversify both the participation in and appreciation of the Performing Arts. The program is designed to make dance and music instruction activities more accessible to underprivileged children by providing scholarship assistance, transportation assistance, academic support and nutritional guidance programs. We feel it is important to offer these additional services so that no socio-economic group is excluded from having the benefits of the "Arts Advantage".

Our services offer children of all ages top quality instruction in both dance and music in a nurturing environment, emphasizing self-esteem, cultural pride, artistic growth and commitment to one's self. We will provide creative incentives for children of all races and socioeconomic backgrounds in order to help them overcome the barriers that hinder their advancement and lead them on the path to healthy habits and a promising future.

Why Dance

Dance provides all three components of any well-rounded exercise program: stretch, resistance training, and aerobics. A dancer's outlook takes on a renewed sense of creativity, motivation and energy, and provides an emotional outlet to express feelings through body movement. Dance builds self-esteem. Additionally, it instills confidence and the ability to enjoy one's self in public. Everyone has the ability to dance. It only needs to be cultivated through instruction. Tap into your soul and discover the rhythm that will inspire you to dance and to dream.
