Frequently asked questions
How can I raise money for a dance group?
You can find plenty of fun and easy fundraising ideas for dance studios and groups. From dance recital benefits to dance classes and silent discos, there’s a dance team fundraising idea for every group and style. Successful fundraising ideas for dance schools often rely on the support of friends and family members to donate, spread the word, or help run the event.
Why do dance teams fundraise?
Dance teams raise funds to cover expenses like uniforms, competitions, and travel—and to spread awareness about their group. They might also fundraise for their favorite cause or host a special community dance performance in honor of a particular charity.
How to get sponsors for a dance team?
Securing sponsorships for your dance team is as simple as building relationships, demonstrating value, and making the ask. Use our guide on how to write sponsorship proposals (which also includes free outreach templates!) and check out our list of companies that donate who may support your fundraising efforts. You could also ask local restaurants and retail stores to consider becoming fundraising partners.
How to run a dance-a-thon fundraiser?

When brainstorming dance marathon fundraising ideas, consider details such as your fundraising goals, potential themes, dates, locations, sponsors, supporters, and dance challenges. Choose to livestream your event to reach a bigger audience and attract more donations.
