Hi, I'm a Mod Salem, executive director of Battery Dance. I know you have a lot of requests coming this giving season, so I'll keep this brief. 2023 was an incredible year for Battery Dance and Mark. We performed at New York Live Arts for the first time. In August, we presented the 42nd Annual Battery Dance Festival at Rockefeller Park, a new location for us. We brought our dancing to connect outreach workshops and performances to. Nigeria, Germany, Poughkeepsie, NY, Houston, TX and right here at home in New York City. To keep this incredible momentum going into 2024, we need your help again. We're expanding our education outreach to new schools and partners. We have new exciting commissions that are currently in the works. We have new international tours, plant to China S home and more places around the world. And we're building up to our 50th anniversary year, 50 years. We can't do this work without you. Your gift in any amount will make an extra difference as it will be matched by our board dollar for dollar. I do hope that you'll make a contribution today at Unlock these matching Funds. You can donate by visiting donate.batterydance.org. Thank you so much for your generosity and for being part of the Battery Dance community.
