 Mission
Statement
The primary
purpose of The Isis Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit entity, with board
members consisting of studio owners, dance instructors, dance students and

Eastern Dance.

Foundation will continue to create environments and situations whose purpose is

Additional
Goals
Additional goals are to provide scholarships to deserving dancers to attend
seminars in order to study and represent our Performing Company by performing in
seminar productions, then to return to share those studies with other dancers.
In addition, the Foundation will occasionally purchase costumes, accessories and
props for members of The Performing Company to wear and use when representing
us.
The Foundation and its sponsors will also have access to the extensive library
in the Isis Production Suites for the use of books, magazines and videos
dedicated to the study of this art form.
The Foundation and the Wings of Isis will present lectures and sponsor haflas
and workshops which are open to everyone.
