Because of Relocations, Renovations, Burglary, Less Scholarship Funding. etc. We are now facing a deficit of S25,000.00. Our financial situation is of such that unless we receive monetary assistance immediately the 1982/83 Season can not be considered. We have successfully approached some private funding sources and now appeal to the City of Miami which over the years has invested its most treasured possessions, (Miami's Youth) in our creative keeping.. The returns for all of us have been the ever.', Sncreaeing numberobf children who have learned to recognize that the arts offer a source for continued enrichment of lives... A better quality of life! So that we may continue- 1-To be one of the forerunners in motivating young people towards increased awareness of life; broadened perspectives; newly realized and respected personal aesthetics; personal, social, and emotional development: and greater communicative skills. 2.To successfully maintain a complexion which creatively blends the multi-ethnic/economic youth who represent a cross section of Miami's community at large.
