New York City school children are facing an unprecedented semester, and Broadway's Babies is committed to making sure our most vulnerable youth don't fall through the cracks with their Rally In Support of Education (RISE-20) Campaign. This Fall, Broadway's Babies will be offering weekly dance, music, theater, and poetry classes for 10,000+ youth in New York City. Whether it is to express their pain and anger, to process and heal their wounds as a community, or to escape their trauma, our youth need access to arts education programming now more than ever.

Broadway's Babies is a non-profit organization with a mission to provide arts education, building a bridge between the Broadway community and underserved youth to open the doors through which tomorrow's leaders can emerge. Since 2016, Broadway's Babies has been working with underserved youth in New York City, India, and Haiti, providing more than 700 young people with tens of thousands of hours of arts programming.

Viewing of this concert is free, but donations are welcome in support of Broadway's Babies RISE-20 Campaign. (tinyurl.com/risetwenty)
