$350 raised from 4 donors

$500 goal

I’m Michael Payne.

I’m fundraising for Wilmington Ballet Academy of the Dance.

If you donate to this fundraiser, you’re not only helping me stay in dance, but you’re also funding other dancers like me as we all work to express ourselves through this art form!  Wilmington Ballet is an amazing organization that gives me and my friends such a spectacular opportunity to pursue our goals in dance and work ourselves to the fullest.  Of course, as a nonprofit, this organization can’t run without your help!  Thank you to all of our supporters, and I hope you choose to help fund our futures through my fundraiser!
