NASD Scholarship Funding
We offer financial support for students through scholarships.
Wish to support a GREAT thing? Call US at 803-292-5370.
Additional ticket sales from our end of the year recitals in May are a large support towards the funding of NASD scholarships. Each year over $30 thousand dollars is donated by the NASD teachers & staff
in addition to local events & charities supported.
Throughout the year we also THANK many businesses & individuals who donate money in
support of scholarships we offer to students each month.
In past years we were honored to have worked with the North Augusta Cultural Arts Council who provided over
$10 thousand dollars with the Gift of Dance scholarships by way of the Kevin Kisner Foundation for dance students to the City of North Augusta.
We continue to give a special THANKS to the RECing Crew & our ongoing partnership - who assist students of all ages with special needs in extra curricular activities, like weekly tap classes.
EVERY dollar gifted goes directly to a student in our local community helping the dancing arts thrive!
