Boston Dance Alliance collaborated in a volunteer initiative alongside the SBB Research Group Foundation, which partners with local nonprofits through its Champion A Charity Program.

The SBB Research Group Foundation partnered with the Boston Dance Alliance to support the Cambridge Dance Company’s Informal Showcase, an engaging, educational event held in Cambridge on May 30th. The Boston Dance Alliance is committed to supporting and amplifying the local dance community through advocacy, access, and collaboration.

The showcase served as an educational experience as well as a performance opportunity. Attendees learned how choreography is developed, how dancers interpret music and rhythm, and how dance continues to shape Boston’s cultural identity. The event featured live dance performances, insightful Q&A sessions, and conversations with the artists. Volunteers from the SBB Research Group Foundation contributed to the evening’s success by welcoming guests, collecting donations, distributing programs, capturing media, and managing a live stream of the event.

“Dance is such a powerful way to connect with the community,” said Lauren Pajer, a volunteer with the SBB Research Group Foundation. “We were excited to support an event that not only showcased talent but also made dance more accessible and understandable to a broader audience.” The interactive elements of the event allowed attendees to engage deeply with each performance and fostered a shared appreciation for the artistic process.

This initiative helped the Boston Dance Alliance and Cambridge Dance Company reach new audiences while reinforcing the importance of the performing arts in local culture. The involvement of volunteers and community partners like the SBB Research Group Foundation helped ensure a smooth and welcoming experience for all in attendance.
