Our 2025 Year End Update
What a year! Thank you for your continued support!
Hi everyone,
Happy almost 2026! On behalf of all of us at the Dancefix Foundation, I want to update you on our work in 2025 and thank you for your incredible support that helped us hit the ground running! Bringing dance to those who might not otherwise have the opportunity. is truly a dream come true.
Since our launch six months ago, we have developed and presented 100 uniquely tailored dance programs for schools, youth, adults, and cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers. These programs provided 171 hours of dancing to 1,334 individuals over multiple visits, totaling 2,428 impressions! Our 2025 partners included Beech Acres, Frederick Douglass Elementary, Mercy Montessori, the Down Syndrome Association of Greater Cincinnati, Winton Hills Academy, Kilgour Elementary, Walnut Hills High School, Saint Ursula Academy, and the Ronald McDonald House of Greater Cincinnati, among others. We look forward to growing these partnerships and adding new programs in 2026!
I also want to highlight our inaugural fundraiser, Studio DFX, which took place in September and was a tremendous success! Co-chaired by Kathryn Harsh and Diane Rumpke with support from our party committee, the event raised $110,000 thanks to your generous donations! Thank you to our event sponsors, volunteers, raffle donors, vendors and to everyone involved for helping to make this party so incredible! Please save the date for next year’s Studio DFX party on Saturday, September 26, 2026. You won't want to miss it!
We are also thrilled to announce Kids Dance Day, the best day ever! On Wednesday, April 29 at 12:00pm, we will transport over 500 students from across the city to dance together in Eden Park. Throughout April and May, our instructors will visit partner schools to teach 3rd graders a choreographed dance over three sessions. The students will perform in unison in the park, watch performances by neighboring arts organizations, and enjoy a healthy lunch. We created this day to foster community and joy, providing many students with their first opportunity to visit Eden Park or to see a live performance. We are in need of volunteers to help support Kids Dance Day, if you would like to help, please email me at hbritt@dancefixfoundation.org.
Finally, there is still one day left to make a year-end donation. If you would like to contribute, donate HERE
Thank you for your continued support!
With love and gratitude,
