IMPACT FUND - Scholarships & Youth Dance Programs
Every Ticket Creates Opportunity
The Danceplace Impact Fund transforms a portion of every ticket sold through Danceplace into scholarships, youth development initiatives, and life-changing opportunities through dance around the world.
OUR MISSION
Dance Changes Lives.Access Shouldn't Be a Barrier.
Dance has the power to build confidence, create community, improve wellbeing, and inspire personal growth.
Yet millions of children and young people around the world lack access to quality dance education because of financial, social, or geographic barriers.
The Danceplace Impact Fund was created to help close that gap.
By dedicating a portion of every ticket sold through our platform, we're investing directly into programs that expand access to dance and create meaningful social impact.
For every ticket sold on Danceplace, we contribute $0.05 from our service fee to the Danceplace Impact Fund.
Together with our customers and communities, we're helping make dance more accessible for children and youth around the world.
