100 percent of the funds raised will be used for CDF’s community-based programs including the Scholarship Program and Community Partnership Program. The Community Partnership Program provides dance education to more than 1,000 children each week at more than 20 social service agencies, child development centers, preschools and elementary schools in Birmingham. The Program is designed to engage students and educators in on-going, creative dance experiences that foster skills, confidence and community. Many of these students face physical, mental or emotional challenges or are considered underserved or “at-risk.” And, for many, it is their only opportunity to participate in a dance class.

CDF’s mission is to provide comprehensive dance education to all, enriching the spirit, enlivening the imagination and celebrating community. All of CDF's programs are grounded in the belief that dance is a valuable learning tool for all ages and should be accessible for all...that dance is a foundation for life and learning.
