Funds
Over the past year, our team has worked tirelessly to shift JUNTOS programming to develop our newest initiative, JUNTOSVirtual. This has provided us with the opportunity to create sustainable and impactful arts, education, and leadership based programs that support Community Alliances and Dance Volunteers both abroad and stateside. As we look forward to working and dancing together again, we hope to integrate our virtual programs with our in-person programs both locally and abroad. We wish to support and train young emerging leaders, who are ready to tackle a new technologically connected world and create a global impact through work in the arts.
