“I NOVAdance so that every single hero out there knows that someone is showing up every day for them and offering as much love and appreciation as possible!!”

“I NOVAdance so that no child ever stands alone. Cancer is such a scary disease, and it can be infinitely more scary when you have no one standing behind you. I want to ensure that no child or family fights alone, and that every single one of our B+ heroes feel supported, valued, and loved in our community. They are the strongest souls and they should never feel any differently. I NOVAdance for more smiles and more tomorrows :)”

“This organization created a home for me here, where all different kinds of people come together for one purpose. I NOVAdance so our B+ Heroes can have more laughs, dance parties, and silly pictures. I NOVAdance so our B+ Heroes have the chance to live out their dreams and make new ones. The people have always been and will always be why I NOVAdance- for our B+ Heroes, for people on committee, or the dancers on the day of. I've never been surrounded by more passionate, brave, and inspiring people than I have since joining this community. I'm forever grateful for the love and genuine connections I have made throughout my experience, and I will never forget the beautiful memories I make with them each day.”

Why I NOVAdance: “I NOVAdance for all the kids who should be playing with toys and attending birthday parties, but are instead in hospitals and receiving treatments. If for the length of a B+ Hero Party, a letter to a Hero, or at the dance marathon, we are able to allow these kids to just be kids, we are doing our job, and it feels incredible to be part of a community that wants to do just that.”
