The annual “Dancing For The Space Coast” event is sponsored by the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, L3 Harris Corporation, Space Coast Daily, and the Florida Institute of Technology, in partnership to help local charities in Brevard County. This year’s recipients of the proceeds from “Dancing For The Space Coast” that was held on Saturday, June 4, were The Children’s Hunger Project, Astronaut Memorial Foundation, and the Sheriff’s Pet Posse. As a result of incredible and generous community support, our great sponsors, and the hard work of our dancers, each organization was recently presented a check in the amount of $54,335.62.
Thanks to The Astronauts Memorial Foundation coordination, all guests at Dancing for the Space Coast was treated to a special exhibition performance by local celebrity and 2010 'Dancing with Brevard' winner Stephanie Haridopolos with professional ballroom dancer Pasha Pashkov of ABC Network's "Dancing with the Stars".
Brevard County's signature fundraising annual event, “Dancing For the Space Coast,” was presented Saturday night at Florida Tech's Clemente Center to an enthusiastic who's-who sold-out crowd of more than 800 people.
