I'm dancing to make a difference for sick kids!

When a child is injured, or diagnosed with a serious illness, it affects the whole family. Lives can be turned upside down, and it puts families under enormous pressure. For many families, it can feel like it’s impossible to hold it together.

That’s why I’m joining Ronald McDonald House Charities to Dance for Sick Kids this year.

I’ll be dancing every day for the month of May, and our Team (Revolution Dance Twirl) will be Dancing and hosting some fun activities throughout the month, to raise money that will help families stay in a home-away-from-home, access emotional and financial support, and more. From day one in the hospital and for as long as it takes, your help ensures that families don’t have to navigate the challenges of illness or injury alone.

Please support me by making a tax-deductible donation to my challenge. Your generosity will make sure that Ronald McDonald House Charities can support even more families with a seriously ill or injured child when they need it most.

Dancing for Sick & Injured Kids!

Wednesday 30th Apr
Hi everyone, throughout the month of May I will be dancing an hour a day, to help raise much needed funds for sick and injured children and their families, to help support them during difficult times. 
Revolution Dance Twirl will also be taking part with various Fun activities along the way. Particularly during National Families Week (& the official DFSK Fundraiser) from the 12th-18th of May! 

Other various activities can be used to raise money aside from dancing, so I will also be adding walking to my Fundraiser. 

Please give as much as you can to help those less fortunate, and who are experiencing challenging times with seriously ill and injured kids, it would be greatly appreciated! 

Cheers
Shannon & the RDT Team! 😄
