Upper Montclair For the Cure


From October 2-6, students and staff of the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Upper Montclair, NJ raised more than $500 in donations for the Women's Cancer Programs of EIF to support the fight against breast cancer. Since 1996, Lee National Denim Day has raised more than $70 million for the fight against breast cancer...$5 at a time.

For Denim Day, staff and students who wore jeans were asked to contribute $5. Our practice session was another chance to give - $15 per person. And managment donated $5 for every lesson bought and paid in full on Thursday, October 2.

One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetimes. That's a startling statistic. Thanks to Team Upper Montclair for their participation in this important cause, and congratulations to all who participated!!!!

    Guys, what a great picture!

    This is Annie Arnold, a coordinator of Lee National Denim Day. Thanks so much for your support this year. I think we might need to feature your dancing denim on the site. It's just too cool. Can you send it to me at amarnold@barkleyus.com with a caption?
