Listen to our unique Dancing4Kids PODCAST!!!!!!! Our new podcast can be found under the music section and you may start it and stop it at any time. You can also select the parts you wish to listen to. We thank Stuart-O once again for putting this together and for his outstanding work! We also thank the incredible Human Beat Box AFRA, for giving us our own "Dancing4Kids" unique beat sound and for being such a wonderful friend!!!!
Who we are:
Dancing 4 Kids (D4K), originally named Dancing 4 Aids Orphans (D4AO), was founded by a world renowned ballet dancer, Lynne Charles in 2007. Having enjoyed an illustrious career as an international ballerina, Lynne Charles decided to offer her talents to promote cultural and artistic exchange worldwide for charitable purposes.
Since its inception, D4K has been providing talented artists from all over the world the chance to join together to stage outstanding dance events. These valuable opportunities for cultural exchange have been contributing to the promotion of intercultural exchange as well as developing a better world for us all.
Proceeds from our events are significantly helping children in need around the world and successfully enriching their lives. With people everywhere in desperate need of assistance, and millions of innocent children suffering, our work will never end. “Every child deserves the chance to live, so help us to help them.”
Our Image & Values:
D4K is a small, but dynamic, culturally diverse group of talented and caring individuals located in different countries around the world. Always thinking outside the box enables us to:
- implement the best means to meet the needs of children globally as well as the organizations that support them
- improve children’s lives and aim to end their suffering
- promote the appreciation of culture and arts using dance as our primary vehicle

About Patrick Chamusso and the Two Sisters
We support the Two Sisters and Patrick Chamusso, the founder and one of the people we cannot forget since my colleague (Tremell) and I (Chrissi) met him in February 2008 in White River-South Africa. He calls himself "an ordinary man" but after meeting him and his 140 children it seems that from an ordinary person come the greatest of things.. strength, compassion, love, unselfishness, caring.. just to name a few. The same goes to all those wonderful people that volunteer their services to help the children of the Two Sisters, and the same goes to all those how simply care. We thank Patrick and the Two Sisters board for letting us visit the orphanage and for making this a lifechanging experience to us.
Please visit the Two Sisters website on:
www.twosisters.org.za to learn more about Patrick, the Two Sisters and ways to help them if you can and want.
Below is a video clip from Catch a Fire.
