Hey! I’m Elle the Public Relations Director for Dance Marathon 32. I’ve lost 2 of my cousins to pediatric cancer and my dad to stomach cancer, and their memory is what fuels my love for UIDM. This organization has given me a place to turn grief into purpose and a community that feels like home. I’ve met my lifelong friends here, and I’m endlessly grateful for the chance to use my voice to support the kiddos and the mission we believe in so deeply.

To our dancers, 

Every one of you brings something unique and powerful to this organization. Whether you’re here because of a personal connection or simply a desire to make a difference, know that what you’re doing matters. Show up with heart, be proud of the impact you're making, and know that you're part of a community that will stay with you long after your time with UIDM!

Love, Elle
