Campaign Story
Story of unexpected winners
Puerto Lopez is a small fishermen village on the Ecuatorian Pacific coast. In April 2017, Priscilla Ramos, a talented profesional dancer, decided to open a Dance Academy in Puerto López.
Local community gave it an enthusiastic recepcion, especially young girls who had very little options in extracurricular activities.
Thanks to her experience and desire of continuous improvement, Priscilla trained in particular a group of 17 girls ranged in age from 10 to 12 years, in which she identified a great potential.
After lots of work and dedication, little dancers were ready for the amazing experience to compete and surpass themselves. On 9th of Novemver 2017, they participated to a Dance Nacional Championship and, to the great surprise of their adversaries, they won the first place in their category!
Thanks to that victory, the group qualified for Dance World Championship in Orlando, Florida, United States that will take place from 21st to 25th of November 2018.
Why we need your help
These girls come all from very humble families, with very little incomes and resources. We need you to make their dreams come true !!! help us to finance their trip to Orlando and experience the most amazing event in their young lives!!! The money will go entirely to pay plane tickets and stay in Orlando.
