Gratitude in Motion. 🤝

Huge thanks to the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha at Butler University for their incredible support for the third year in a row! We are thrilled to share that through their dedicated efforts, the annual Teeter Totter Thon has raised a cumulative $60,000 over the past three years.

This phenomenal contribution is helping us bring Dance for Parkinson’s, Indy Ballet Classroom, and Community Nights to life. We are constantly inspired by Butler LXA’s passion for the arts and their commitment to our mission of making ballet accessible to all audiences.

To the brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha: Thank you for being such vital partners in our journey and for helping us provide transformative outreach and holistic growth for our dancers.

Want to help them grow that total even further? Check out https://butler.crowdchange.co/54801 to donate to this year's campaign! Any size donation goes a long way.
