On March 22nd, 2010, the Dade Community Foundation's Annual Grants Appreciation Breakfast ceremony celebrated the awarding of 110 grants in support of nonprofit organizations who are addressing key issues in our community. To illustrate the outstanding work of these organizations, three grantees were featured through a video presentation -- including the Thomas Armour Youth Ballet.
