Project details

What we need
  • 1-2 page press release that can be distributed to news outlets
Additional details

Thank you for your support! We need (potentially) 2 or 3 press releases written, and guidance on which events or projects we should be writing about. We know that press releases are important, but don't have a clear understanding of when and which projects should be talked about. We'd love expertise to tell us the basics of when, what, and how to develop this as part of our effort to get the word out about our work, as well as things currently hanging over our heads to be written up. Thanks!

What we have in place
  • We currently have We currently have 1 press release, beautiful photos, lots o, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have We are doing great work in the community, but we lack a cohe, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,348 , allowing us to direct all of our resources towards arts and wellness programs in the community.

We are doing great work in the community, but we lack a cohesive marketing plan to build awareness and find donors. We know that press releases are important, but don't know the basics of how, when and where to use them. Having guidance in this area will be a positive step in getting the word out about our beautiful and impactful work.

Our mission

Grown Women Dance Collective creates cross-cultural, generational, and class connections, encouraging dialogue, empowering thought and action, and building racial harmony through concert dance and wellness programs. In a positive and nurturing environment, mature dancers challenge the stereotypes of aging, create artistic work that is relevant and accessible to diverse and underserved audiences, promote mind and body healing through health and fitness programs, and create economic opportunities for young people.

What we do

Arts & Wellness for Social Justice

2) Free community arts & wellness classes: Dance, Dance with Literacy (Black history and African American poetry), Pilates for Back & Joint Pain, Fall Prevention for Seniors

3) Pilates & Joyful Movement Life Skills Certification- creates audacious movement leaders in under resourced communities that bring arts, pain prevention, fall prevention, nutrition, financial literacy, and well paying careers into their own communities.
