Overview
Mission
To contribute to the community by educating and exposing children to the art of dance through inclusive performances and programs as well as year-round classes and fundraising activities.
What it reported doing in 2025
Dassdance serves the community by offering accessible dance education and inclusive performance programming for children through adults of all ages. Scholarships and free or reduced tickets are available to the public at our school, outreach programs as well as festivals and student and professional performances. We connect with local public schools and non-profits to reach a broader sector of the population including friends of youth to offer free tickets to foster families. All performances feature both student and professional dancers, giving employment to professional dancers and inspiration to students. The 14th annual all 4 1 dancepalooza assembles communities of different cultural and dance styles together to showcase their talents and find a common ground to build friendships and reach a diverse population. All 4 1 attracts over 150 students to engage with celebrated master artists and perform together at broadway performance hall. Seattle city nutcracker showcases wilkins' athletic all-terrain melding of jazz, ballet, modern and acrobatics as well as tap and high-flying aerial. Dassdance invites koach giggz and his hip hop group kutt'n'up to join in the production, adding to the diversity presented on the stage and in the audience. Our spring show offers the opportunity to showcase their skills in such productions as swan lake remix or alice in wonderland.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 92% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
