HELP US SHINE ON THE NATIONAL STAGE!

Since 1968, the Purdue Dance Team has brought spirit, energy, and enthusiasm to Purdue University Athletics and community events. As a self-funded team, we proudly perform at all home football games, select men's and women's basketball games, as well as soccer, volleyball, and baseball games. Beyond game days, we support local philanthropies, schools, and community events, spreading Boilermaker pride wherever we go.

One of our greatest honors is competing at the National Dance Alliance (NDA) Collegiate Championship in Daytona Beach, Florida. Representing Purdue University on this national stage is a privilege we hold dear, and we are committed to showcasing our talent, dedication, and Boilermaker spirit at this prestigious event each year.


WHY WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT


The Purdue Dance Team is entirely self-funded, which means that every competition, performance, and training session is made possible through our fundraising efforts and generous supporters like you. This year, we are seeking to raise funds to help cover the costs of competing at NDA Nationals in April 2025. Your donations will directly support:

  • Flights – $770 per person (~$16,000 total)
  • Registration & Lodging – $14,000
  • Costumes – $200 per dancer (~$3,800 total)
  • Choreography – $5,500
  • Transportation in Daytona – $1,000

Without sufficient funding, we risk losing the opportunity to compete at NDA Nationals and showcase Purdue University alongside the nation’s top collegiate dance teams. Your support ensures that we can continue to represent Purdue with pride, passion, and excellence.


THE IMPACT OF YOUR DONATION


Your generosity can make a lasting impact. As a donor, you will:

  • Help our team compete at the highest level in collegiate dance.
  • Be recognized on our website, social media, and competition gear.
  • Support a legacy of Boilermaker spirit and excellence that has been part of Purdue for nearly 60 years.

Every dollar counts! Whether you can contribute $10, $50, or $500, your donation helps us take one step closer to the NDA National Championship stage.

We are calling on our Purdue community, alumni, family, and friends to help us reach our goal. With your support, we can continue our tradition of excellence and make Purdue proud at NDA Nationals.

Thank you for your generosity and support—Boiler Up!
