Ballet Classes for Naomi who has dreams of becoming a professional athlete!

Posted Feb 23, 2018
Naomi has already been accepted to two service academies on a fencing scholarship! She trains very hard and has always wanted to include ballet in her training regimen. We are asking for a few months of ballet lessons for her and feel that these lessons will propel her to even greater levels of accomplishment!

Naomi is 23 years old and lives in CO

We have worked with some amazing foster teens, but Naomi absolutely takes the cake! She has already graduated from high school early and is attending college full time. She has been accepted at not one, but two service academies, The United States Air Force Academy and The United States Naval Academy, both on fencing scholarships! She has her choice of which academy to attend! She excels at academics and spends her free time practicing and competing in fencing! Her foster mother reports that Naomi is a "dream" to have in her home. Naomi has also volunteered and worked in our store, The Hanger, which allows foster teens to shop for free.
