About SHINE
Starpath Helping in Neighborhoods Everywhere - SHINE - is a group of Starpath Dance Academy’s student leaders whose vision is to use their joy of dance to spread positivity in the community and raise funds for a dance scholarship for someone with financial need. Under the mentorship of Miss Lindsey. the members of the SHINE program create, plan and host events, contests and more.
In its inaugural year, SHINE raised more than $3k for UNC Children’s Hospital and donated 200 costumes to the Boys and Girls club of Durham. We have a dancer currently on a full scholarship from the SHINE program. Starpath Dance Academy believes that giving back to the community that supports us is important, and we are dedicated to helping others in any way we can.
