Hi, I’m Leo Berry & I am supporting BOLD, Inc. because I saw first hand how dance can bring joy, confidence, and connection to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities when I first volunteered at BOLD. I want to help raise money so more participants can experience the benefits of ballroom dance, therapy, social interaction, and performance opportunities.

Teens For Bold invite you to help us help others by donating to Benefits of Learning to Dance.

I believe that we each have a responsibility to help each other. Especially those that can’t always help themselves, or have the means to do so. Helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to experience the therapeutic benefits of ballroom dance is the mission behind Carmel, Indiana non profit: Benefits of Learning Dance Inc (BOLD). That coupled with volunteer opportunities for youth of all ages to also have a chance to help others aligns with the mission of Helping Ninjas to inspire youth to help others and our planet, and provide opportunities to do so. BOLD is a Carmel not-for-profit that turns joy into something real, giving the intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) community the chance to learn ballroom dance, build confidence, and connect through movement.

I have joined with eight fellow classmates to start a fundraising initiative: TEENS FOR BOLD. Myself, Leo Berry and founder, Remy Hollingsworth along with HC Wang, Ethan Morgel, Benny Winger, Knox Leimer, Brady Bales and Sergio Aleman.

BOLD FOR TEENS goal is to raise ten thousand dollars by the end of AUGUST 2026. Our team will donate the $10,000 to BOLD and sponsor a table at the BOLD Dance Gala on November 6th.

BOLD’s founder, Sean Gehlhausen, has the long-term goal of getting ballroom dance officially recognized and state-funded as a therapeutic physical activity, like equestrian riding is for therapy.

Carmel student, Remy Hollingsworth, decided to start Teens For Bold to help being inspired upon volunteering at BOLD: “Some of the people closest to me have IDD. The first time we watched a BOLD Dance session, you could just see it on their faces. Pure joy. Like nothing else in the world mattered.”

We deliver more than a million meals every year—many of them to kids and seniors. If you think that sounds pretty cool and you want to help out, stop by — we’re always looking for people to join the fight against hunger."

Indiana High School students advance into the Semifinals through the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton Global Youth Investment Competition

Advancing into the top 50 teams internationally and one of the twenty-five teams chosen from the US in the Wharton Global Youth Investment Competition, the team is comprised of four members from Carmel High School: Michelle Xuan, CHS junior, Darby Miller, CHS junior, Helen Xu, CHS senior, and Ella Guo, CHS sophomore.

“Our team is extremely grateful for this experience and how much it has taught us regarding collaboration and the world of finance,” says Darby Miller, Team Strategy Specialist. “Making it to the semifinals and being able to represent our school as well as our community within the competition is such an honor. Our mission is to represent all women interested in business and highlight that you don’t need an extensive finance background to be successful.”

The team’s advancement in the competition was credited to their creativity, communication, and adaptive concepts regarding stock strategy.

Michelle Xuan is the Team Leader, Darby Miller is the Strategy Specialist, Helen Xu is the Group Coordinator, and Ella Guo is the Investment Analyst.
