Help Build the World’s Most Grassroots Mental Health Dance Movement

Dork Dancing isn’t just an event. It’s a lifeline. A community. A reminder that movement can bring us back to ourselves. Dork Dancing exists for one reason: To help people with their mental health through joyful, judgment-free dance. For six years, we’ve hosted hundreds of free gatherings across cities, parks, schools, conferences, fundraisers, and communities—creating spaces where people can move, breathe, laugh, and belong. Now, we’re entering a new chapter. We’re building something permanent. And we need founding supporters to help make it possible.

What Is a Founding Dork?

A Founding Dork is someone who believes in the power of dance as mental health care. You are not just donating. You are helping fund:

  • Free community dance gatherings

  • Expansion into new cities and countries

  • Programs for people who are isolated, anxious, or struggling

  • A movement where joy becomes medicine

Founding Dorks are the first people to plant the flag. The first builders. The first believers. Your support helps ensure Dork Dancing doesn’t burn out—it grows.

Why We’re Asking Now

Dork Dancing has always been rooted in generosity. But sustaining this work requires real infrastructure:

  • Event costs

  • Organizer support

  • Communications tools

  • Print marketing

  • Digital platforms and outreach

  • Program development in the U.S. and Vietnam

This is how we turn spontaneous joy into lasting impact.

Dork Dancing is simple. No choreography. No perfection. No pressure. Just people showing up—together. In a world that is heavy, this is how we fight back: With movement. With joy. With community. If you believe in that… Become a Founding Dork today. Help us build a world that dances for mental health.
