Pensacola Youth Ballet in collaboration with Mixon Magic, were able to provide a flash-mob experience in support of "Light Up Learning", presented by the Studer Community Institute. This is the signature fundraiser for their early brain development initiatives, and is presented every year in October.
The Pensacola Youth Ballet generously partnered with The Secret Place Home, a state-licensed Safe Harbor Safe House for female child survivors of sex trafficking in Northwest Florida. Every dollar donated from the performance provided opportunities for the youth at The Secret Place Home to personalize their individual bedrooms with their own unique style and materials. Bedding, clothes, calendars, planners, colored night lights, and shower heads allowed the youth to take ownership of their belongings and finally have a place to call home in order to heal.
