Donations
Direct Donations
We are a non-profit organization registered with the IRS as a 501(c) (3) charity. While the young people in the dance program work hard raising funds throughout the year by selling World's Finest Chocolate bars, running a Dance Clinic for the younger children in our community, and hosting an annual school dance, we also appreciate donations from the members of our community. Every dollar you donate will go directly to the Dance Program at Stiles Middle School. And did we mention we're a 501(c) (3) charity? So, it's tax deductible! It's a win-win!
You can mail checks made out to Golden Sparks Booster Club or GSBC to:

You're going to buy it anyway, so why not buy it and have some money go back to our dancers?! Shop Amazon at https://smile.amazon.com/ch/46-2790388 and make sure to select Golden Sparks Booster Club as the charity you support. You will see the exact same products and prices that you see on amazon.com, but the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible purchases back to our organization at NO cost to you.
Where Does It All Go?
