Rent-A-Dancer

The Rent-A-Dancer Program (RAD) is the club’s most important fundraising endeavor and we hope that you will participate in this semester’s community outreach program. Here are the benefits of hiring us:

  1. We will do your unwanted chores – (your raking, weeding, planting, mulching, window cleaning, brush-clearing, baby-sitting, and more)
  2. You will become a philanthropist – (and feel the resulting giddiness of having made the world a better place)
  3. You will receive a receipt for a tax deduction of 50% for your donation
  4. You will meet UVA’s most friendly, hard-working, graceful, and wholesome students
  5. You will be invited as guests to our showcase performances at the University

Some homeowners feel that they do not have enough work to warrant having two students for an entire day. In order to work around this, here are a couple of options:

  • hire 2 students for only 3.5 hours this semester
  • team up with your neighbor and split up the work between two homes

To Sign Up:

  1. Send our Fundraising Chairs an email saying you’re interested in hiring some students
  2. Decide whether you would like 2 students from 9:00am to 5:00pm ($200 donation) OR if you would like 2 students from 9:00am to 12:30pm or 1:30pm to 5pm ($120 donation)
  3. Choose a date
  4. Arrange to offer your students some lunch, and have a backup plan in the event of rain
  5. Transportation to and from your home is appreciated but not required

If you have any questions, hesitations, or concerns, the Fundraising Chairs are available to address them.

We are also willing to be flexible if these times and arrangements don’t work for you. Please feel free to pass on this website to friends and family who may also be interested in sustaining UVA’s best club sport!

For UVa Alumni interested in Wedding Dances: We have taught couples ballroom dancing for that special “first dance,” and are a great value. Experienced club members can help you learn how to dance and choreograph a routine if you’d like, to your choice of music. We can also help you pick a suitable song. Please email the Fundraising Chairs your request and we will make an arrangement that meets your needs.

Sincerely,

Officers of the Ballroom Dance Club at UVA
