Financial
Contributions
The
Ballroom Blitz is supported by your generous donations alone;
we do not have a dedicated funding source, we together make
the Ballroom Blitz possible. Monetary donations are ALWAYS
welcome, and needed to cover expenses such as renting space
for the giveaway boutiques, storage, and purchasing dresses
in sizes 12-16 and larger. Financial contributions are always
needed to provide for items that are not donated in large
quantities. A gift of as little as $25.00 will help us "Turn
Dresses Into Dreams".
Businesses
& Corporate Sponsors
Don't
have any dresses, you can still help! The Ballroom Blitz
gratefully accepts corporate donations. Since the Ballroom
Blitz is a 100% volunteer-led effort, your donation directly
supports the cost of producing this special event. At the
same time, our organization requires year-round support
to ensure that we can produce our annual giveaway.
