Hello my name is Hannah Taylor-Kormondy and I am the owner of South Sound Dance in Tumwater, Washington. We are a local small business and opened our dance studio just five years ago. Starting with just 21 students, 1 studio room and 2 teachers, we have grown to 275 students, 2 studios, and a staff of 9 and we are quickly running out of space! Our hallways are crowded, parking is tight, and our current location is not able to serve our families or community well. While the business is growing every year we simply do not have the capital to fund a new commercial build out to meet our needs. Commercial building costs are extremely high which is why many small business owners cannot own or build their own space and why we see more and more corporate businesses throughout our community. City project and planning costs as well as permits can easily run a small business owner upward of 100K just to get a project started. That is where we need your help!
It is my intention to build and create a new, creative, and safe space for students, families, and the community! In order to purchase and renovate a building of 6,000 sq feet or more we are campaigning to raise $50,000 or more! This money will not only help to begin our project, but it will serve our community by supporting local small business, providing a safe after school performing arts center for students in the area, and will bring performing arts and arts education to the forefront of Tumwater and South Sound communities.
Your contribution will help turn my dream of creating a performing arts center for Tumwater into a reality - offering more dance and movement classes, theater, and vocal lessons all under one roof to both children and adults. It will create a safe space for children to go after school to develop their minds and bodies with artistic and kin-esthetic awareness and will help connect people with each other directly instead of through screens. These kids absolutely need safe creative spaces like our dance studio especially with the loss of arts funding from public schools.
Your donation can help a child find their passion, find a voice, and find a connection! Your donation can help a student go to college with a scholarship! Your donation can create healthy body awareness for an adult! Your donation can change our community so please consider the below!
Here it is guys.... broken down for you.
I have already told you how you can shape a person's life. Here are some words directly from our students and families.
There is a risk that we will not meet this goal and that it will take longer for our business to move into a new location. However, with our growth rate and our business strategies I know we will find the right building and be able to make a move in the next year or two if this building does not work out. This money no matter what will contribute to a new performing arts space for the Tumwater community. This is an on-going fundraiser that will continue until we are in the new space!
We understand if you cannot contribute and in no way want to make you feel like you cannot help...so...SPREAD THE WORD! Talk about us at a party, let your family know, share this campaign on your social media and let people know that they can help students, connect people, and potentially change many lives! Support the arts, support South Sound Dance!
We are so grateful to each and every one of you for bringing your children into our lives! And we are so honored that we get to share in your journey with them and help guide them to be their very best self!
Your support and contributions will enable us to meet our goals and build a center for performing arts education in Tumwater! Thank you!
