JUST TRYAN IT

 Last week, Ballet Petite was approached by JUST TRYAN IT, a local non-profit organization working to support families with children fighting cancer at Georgetown University Hospital's pediatric oncology unit. This week, May 19th through May 25th, was Sponsor Challenge Week; many local businesses agreed to pledge matching funds while the young participants work to fundraise. Ballet Petite is proud to be a part of such a wonderful campaign! We made a pledge of $350 alongside dozens of other local businesses.

JUST TRYAN IT's main event this year will be the kids' triathlon at Landon School in Bethesda for ages 6 through 14 on Sunday, June 16th. All race participants have the option to fundraise.

This wonderful organization is working not only to raise money but also to educate children on the importance and power of philanthropy. We wish them all the luck in the world, and thank them for inviting us to participate! Check out their website at http://justtryanit.com/, follow them on Twitter, find them on Facebook, and come join the 1000 people in attendance at the triathlon on June 16th!
