Local personalities trade their day jobs for dancing shoes to raise money for Alzheimer's or related dementias.
The Dancing With The ARK's Stars, presented by our 2023 Mirror Ball sponsor Mary Blunt Dorchester County Probate Judge will take place at the Lowcountry Conference Center on Saturday, May 13,2023.
This fundraiser pairs local celebrities with professional dancers. These local personalities and professional dancers work hard and practice for several weeks leading up to their live performance. Each dancer is paired with a professional dance partner from the sponsor, Ballroom Dance Charleston.
For 27 years, The ARK has been a local nonprofit organization assisting families throughout five counties Dorchester, Berkeley, Charleston, Orangeburg and Colleton County in the Lowcountry.
The ARK helps families cope with daily challenges of Alzheimer's Disease or related dementia through respite care, family support programs, caregiver consultations and educational classes.
The ARK is funded primarily by grants, donations and fundraising events.
