I was so excited to see her be a part of this worthy event and she was so happy to be a part of this wonderful experience to help those in need.
It is said that dancing comes from the heart, and indeed it does.
Seeing my niece appear and perform on stage with Mr. Robert Taylor, Jr. of "So You Think You Can Dance" group was truly a moment I will cherish.
It was so wonderful for everyone but I was especially proud and impressed to see her be a part of this amazing event -- it brought tears to my eyes,
I adore her not only because she is a beautiful niece but for her kindness and consideration for others and for her love and appreciation of the arts.
My hope is that all those dedicated artists who eat, sleep and dance so others can eat and sleep continue doing so that someday there will be an end to all this hunger and homelessness!

While watching these videos I couldn`t help but laugh! I mean specially the "Break it Down" .. I think that this is an awesome idea when you think about it and for a "fundraiser" it is genius!
