The Glen de Vries' Collaborative Leaders Fund

As a former Board Trustee and Chair of Dancing Classrooms, Glen de Vries played a critical role in the growth of the organization, helping to expand its reach around the globe.

On November 11, 2021, the world lost this visionary leader. Glen was not only a digital health trailblazer, passionate philanthropist, and space enthusiast, he was also a lover of ballroom dance who understood how his experience with partner dance made him a more collaborative and confident entrepreneur.

With generous support from the de Vries Estate and another former Dancing Classrooms Board Chair, we are only $200,000 away from our $1 million goal to fund the future of our work!

Please help us bridge this gap by May 31st with a donation in Glen's honor that will ensure that thousands more children become engaged learners and collaborative leaders through dance, building the social-emotional learning skills they need for a successful and joyful life.

To donate by check, please make it out to "Dancing Classrooms, Inc." with a memo indicating the "Glen de Vries Memorial Fund" and mail to: Dancing Classrooms, 1350 Avenue of the Americas, 2nd floor, New York, NY 10019.
