Dear Friends, Family, and Alumni,

On behalf of the 2017-18 Duquesne University Dukettes Dance Team, thank you so much for your donation in support of our journey to nationals. Over $10,000 was raised (a Duquesne crowdfunding record!) to help us take the stage in Daytona Beach, FL for the first time in school history. 

We could not have done it without you.

Please save the date to join us at our nationals send-off showcase in the A.J. Palumbo Center on Monday, April 2, 2018. We can't wait to share our success with you!

Wishing you a Happy New Year!
