Wonder just how important your donations are to Oakland Fund for the Arts? During our recent site visit of the OFFTA funded Ballet Folklorico program at Pride Elementary, we learned that more than 50 kids are on the wait list for free after-school programs. In 2014, we funded two classes of Ballet Folklorico, a program designed to teach kids Mexican dance and culture. And lemme tell ya, these kids were having a blast. We really commend http://lnkd.in/bQmHGGa for putting this program together. Thank you!
