BE THE CHANGE! PDA's 2009 Mission Palmetto Dance Academy and Fine Arts Center is kicking off a community-wide effort to increase volunteerism. Throughout the year students, parents, and friends will share efforts to reach out to the community in order to make it a better place. Projects such as Adopt-A-Highway, Helping Hands for the Elderly, and charitable concerts and projects to raise funds for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and American Cancer Society will come to life. The culminating event will be PDAFAC's Spring Showcase of Talent titled "Be the Change" where all participants volunteering 20 or more community service hours will be awarded the Presidential Service Award. Our students not only train in their art but learn lessons of citizenship, leadership, and empowerment. They learn that with their God-given talent they can make a difference! |
