Giving Tuesday and Colorado Gives 2020 Impact

Thanks to your $20,000 worth of donations for Giving Tuesday and Colorado Gives Day in 2020, in 2021 we were able to provide our in-person 3-day training to prisons in Hawaii, Arkansas and Nebraska—our first time in prison since pre-covid.  

Due to COVID-19 and the inability to dance with the women in prison, DTBF implemented a program in 2020 to donate Media Kits which include a TV, Speaker and DVD player with a wheeled shelving system. These mobile media kits give the prisons flexibility to move them wherever space they can use, which keeps the women dancing. 

In 2021, we were able to purchase and ship media kits to 4 prisons. With these media kits and trained instructors who have completed our teacher-training program, women in the general population in prisons across the US are experiencing the healing power of dance on a regular basis. 

In 2021 We launched a new website—the very one you’re on right now! It includes an online dance subscription service so you can dance with us wherever you are, and we launched our line of DTBF merch.
