International Ballet Competition

Youth America Grand Prix

Dear Friends,

We hope you are feeling well and staying safe at home.

The past few weeks have been a challenge for the entire world – and, in times like these, we are reminded just how interconnected we all are. Staying home can make anyone feel isolated, but we want to remind you that you are part of a community – the world’s largest dance family – and your YAGP family is here for you.

We will continue to facilitate scholarships for talented young dancers worldwide to the world’s leading dance academies. We will continue to provide career guidance, assist with job placement, and offer educational and other important content online.

It goes without saying that we are not only in a health crisis, but also in a financial crisis. Like many arts organizations, YAGP needs help – now more than ever. If you are in the position to make a contribution in any amount, it will be deeply appreciated and will help us help dancers worldwide.

Most importantly, please remember: you are not alone, and we will get through this, together.

For scholarship questions, contact rking@yagp.org.

For career guidance and job placement, contact lsaveliev@yagp.org.

For billing and financial questions, contact finance@yagp.org.

To donate in any amount, click here or contact Laura Alfaro, the Director of Development, at development@yagp.org or at 917-297-4028.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Your YAGP family
