The Foundation for MERS Brings Back the Beloved Dance With Your Daughter Fundraising Event, Which Raised Over $30,000 for the MERS District
The Foundation for MERS proudly brought back the ever-popular Dance With Your Daughter Fundraising Event. This treasured tradition lit up the fall season with joy, elegance, and community spirit. Hosted on two unforgettable evenings—November 3 and November 17, 2024—at Battleground Country Club, the event welcomed over 750 dads and daughters for a magical celebration of family and togetherness.
The evening sparkled with music and movement thanks to Noble Productions, who kept the dance floor vibrant with crowd favorites and interactive entertainment. From heartfelt slow dances to energetic group numbers, the event created memories that will last a lifetime.
Adding to the magic were formal portraits provided by Freehold Photography, capturing each father-daughter pair in timeless elegance. In addition to the formal shots, candid moments of laughter, dancing, and sweet interactions were beautifully documented by Mirrored Memories, offering families a gallery of cherished memories to revisit for years.
“This dance is more than an event—it’s a reflection of what our community is all about: love, connection, and support for our schools,” said Diane Gianettino, Event Coordinator. “We are beyond grateful to everyone who made it possible.”
Thanks to incredible community participation and generous support, the dance raised over $30,000, benefiting students and educators throughout the Manalapan-Englishtown Regional School District.
The Foundation expresses deep appreciation to the families who attended, the volunteers who helped behind the scenes, Battleground Country Club for hosting the event in a stunning venue, Noble Productions for keeping the energy high, and Freehold Photography for capturing the night’s most meaningful moments.
