See Chicago Dance is a nonprofit service organization with the mission to advocate for the dance field and strengthen a diverse range of dance organizations and artists through services and programs that build and engage audiences. As a service organization, we amplify, convene, produce, facilitate, and advocate for our dancing communities.

- $250: Stipends for Screendance Club filmmaker and facilitator, per event

- $5,000: SeeChicagoDance.com's journalism program
- $7,500: Health insurance for two full-time SCD employees
- $10,000: Waives membership dues for existing and new SCD Members
(Membership fees have been waived since 2020 thanks to the generosity of Grand Stage) - $100,000: A new future-facing website with the capacity to better serve our 120,000 annual site users.
As we enter the season of giving and gratitude, we invite you to contribute to the beautiful diversity and dynamism of our work and that of our constituents. You help spread the power of dance in Chicago!
