GIVE THE GIFT OF DANCE

#GIVINGTUESDAY | DEC. 2, 2014

“I will not let the word ‘can’t’ define my possibilities.” – AileyCamp Affirmations

We have a day for feasting and giving thanks. We have two days for shopping and getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, December 2, 2014, charities, community organizations, students, and alumni around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give back. AileyCamp Baltimore needs your help to raise money to send 64 campers to Towson for AileyCamp Baltimore 2015.

What is AileyCamp Baltimore?

AileyCamp is a FREE innovative summer program for underserved children ages 11-14 that uses disciplined dance training, creative writing instruction, personal development, and communication workshops to help campers develop a respect for themselves and others that meaningfully impacts their lives.

Benefits to our Community

The main objective of the AileyCamp project at Towson University is to increase the quality of life for the at-risk children in our community by encouraging healthy behaviors and new life skills through artistic expression.

This camp will provide 64 campers with increased self-esteem, critical thinking skills, and nutritional education. The camp is designed to provide a safe environment in which the students can stretch their bodies and minds while developing these life skills that will serve them during their transition to the challenging years of high school and into adulthood.
