About

The Trip

The Midland University Dance Program is excited to announce we will be traveling to the Windy City this spring! This trip is a great opportunity for our dancers to take master classes at some of the most renown companies in the nation, meet with current professional dancers, see a musical at the prestigious Oriental Theatre, and explore the downtown Chicago area. We are excited to give our dancers this amazing experience, but need your help to get there!

The Need

The cost per dancer to attend the Chicago trip is $1,500.00. Our goal of $5,000 will help cover the cost of all of our master classes. In order to reach this goal, each dancer will need 15 friends and family members to donate just $20.00. But any gift, however big or small, will help us reach our goal! Your support allows the Midland University Dance Program to learn from some of the best teachers and choreographers in the nation. As a program, we are always looking for ways to better ourselves as dancers, and your support will help provide these opportunities.

The Team

The Midland University Dance Program is comprised of the Four-Time NAIA National Champion Competitive Dance Team, Midland's Game Day Squad, Premier Dance Company, and Midland Dance Company. We strive for excellence, passion, and respect in all that we do; we are more than just a team, we are a family. Thank you for your support!

Over Half-Way to Our Goal!

Wow! In just 14 days, we have already passed the 50% mark of reaching our $5K goal! This would not have been possible without amazing donors like yourself! We are so thankful for your generous support of the Midland University Dance Program, and we wouldn't have the opportunities we do without you! 

With 31 days remaining, we ask that you continue to spread the word about our campaign so we can reach our fundraising goal! Each dollar that we raise is one less dollar that comes out of pocket... so every penny counts! If you have not done so yet, we ask you to consider sharing our campaign link on your social media pages. Community advocacy is such an important tool and we have already raised $360 just from your Facebook shares alone!

Again, THANK YOU on behalf of the Midland University Dance Program! We are so thankful for all that you do to support the team!
