Dance the afternoon away with Open Finance in partnership with PwC at the annual Ali Forney Center Dance-a-Thon!

The Ali Forney Center’s mission is to protect LGBTQ+ youths from the harms of homelessness and empower them with the tools needed to live independently. Their annual dance-a-thon raises funds to help these youths. For example, a donation of $25 can provide 10 meals.

For details, please see the links below:

There are three ways that you can help with this important cause:

  1. Dance
    1. Register as a dancer on team Open Finance / PwC. Although the event is from 2:00 PM – 8:00 PM, you can show up and leave any time that you want! Water and snacks will be provided for free, but alcoholic drinks and whole meals must be paid separately. Depending on the donation amount, you will receive a prize for your contributions (what the prizes are will be mentioned later). There will be dance instructors at various points in the event to learn new moves!
