🎉 Happy National Make a Difference to Children's Month! 🎉

Here at Allegro Foundation, we believe every child deserves the chance to shine, learn, and grow, regardless of their abilities. This July, as we celebrate National Make a Difference to Children's Month, we're reflecting on the incredible impact that dedicated individuals like YOU make in the lives of children living with disabilities.

Allegro Foundation is a Champion for Children with Disabilities. We combine movement instruction with medical and educational expertise to teach children with disabilities and enhance their quality of life. Through our free movement education programs, we teach hundreds of children with Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, orthopedic challenges, intellectual and learning disabilities, visual and hearing impairments, children "at-risk" , and children living with cancer in the Charlotte Mecklenburg and York County, South Carolina school districts. These programs are truly life-changing, providing medical, social, emotional, and educational benefits.

Allegro Foundation is proud to announce its 15th Annual Ambassador's Ball which will be held on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at The Quail Hollow Club hosted by Mr. Felix Sabates. Allegro's Ambassador's Ball is a celebration of national and local partnerships focused on helping children living with disabilities.

As this is one of our most important events of the year, we wanted to share with you how the tradition of an annual Ambassador's Ball began. The Ambassador's Ball started as an outgrowth of Allegro's student presentations at The White House. Allegro Foundation has the distinction of being the first organization for children living with disabilities to present at The White House in our nation's history. We have continued to be involved with The White House over the years. We have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with Her Excellency, Maguy Doyle, Ambassador of Monaco to the United States, as her predecessor former Ambassador Gilles Noghes of Monaco founded Allegro’s Goodwill Ambassadors.

Allegro honors a different Ambassador/Country each year at our annual Ambassador's Ball. The purpose of our annual Ambassador's Ball is to share what Allegro is doing for children living with disabilities. Allegro is thrilled to report that we are teaching more children living with disabilities than ever before in our 34 years of operation! Allegro has been able to offer our FREE movement education classes for children living with disabilities at over 50 program sites this school year. This means that we are able to teach over 800 children living with disabilities every week in North and South Carolina. Allegro Foundation is so thankful for our wonderful supporters who help us to be Champions for Children Living with Disabilities:) Your support truly means so much!
