Youth Emergency Services is proud to announce the dancer lineup for its 11th Annual Dance for a Chance fundraiser.

Similar to Dancing with the Stars, Dance for a Chance pairs up dancers with instructors, who then work together to create a dance, pick accompanying music and practice over the summer before competing in August.

At the same time, the dancers work to engage and motivate their personal and professional networks -- largely via social media -- to raise awareness and money for Youth Emergency Services.

Thanks to C&A Industries, which returns as this year's Presenting Sponsor, and Lindsay Corporation, which is the YES Champion Sponsor.

Other sponsorships remain available. Please contact YES Director of Development Barb Farho at bfarho@yesomaha.org to sign up as an event sponsor and help support YES and its many programs that serve homeless and at-risk youth in our community.
