@FidelityChrtbl Thank you for hosting this #CharitableChat @FidelityChrtbl. It's great to hear about all the amazing work our sector is doing!

@FidelityChrtbl At our Fall Benefit, our current dancers teamed up with some of our alums to perform. We love it when multiple generations of NDI come together, and we’re so proud to see our amazing alums inspire younger students. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl A9. We want our donors to know we are growing! NDI is now in 256 classrooms and it would not be possible without the help of our supporters. With their help, we’ll continue to grow and bring dance and live music to the school day for a new generation of students. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl A8. Make it a family affair! Talk about the causes that are close to your heart when you are with family this holiday season. Instead of gifts, ask for a donation to your favorite organization. Donate to a charity in someone’s honor rather than buying them a gift. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl A6. Get to know your neighbors. Attend city council meetings, volunteer at local events, and be aware of local budget cuts, like the Dept. of Education’s reduced funding to NYC public schools, to help you identify areas that might need more support. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl Q4. It took time for NDI to return to our pre-pandemic levels of activity, but now we are in more schools than ever before and looking towards the future! Support from our donors is critical in allowing us to bring arts education to children in 48 schools. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl Resources like Candid’s GuideStar Charity Check vet many organizations to ensure they are legitimate. NDI is proud of our platinum rating. Additionally, check if an organization has 501c3 status from the IRS that designates it a charitable organization. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl Seeing your impact for yourself is extremely rewarding. Donors can visit our classrooms, watch a performance, and visit our website and socials to see our dancers, teaching artists, and musicians in action. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl Follow your heart when giving! If arts education is important to you, then by partnering with NDI, you help bring dance and live music to more students. We believe the arts have a unique power to engage children and motivate them toward excellence. #CharitableChat

@FidelityChrtbl Thanks, @FidelityChrtbl for this #CharitableChat! I’m from National Dance Institute (NDI). Since our founding in 1976 by NYC Ballet principal dancer Jacques d’Amboise, NDI has impacted more than two million children & leads the field of arts education…and no child pays a penny!
