Dance Fundraiser to Support Boston Children’s Hospital

Community submission
DALTON, Mass. -- Grooving for Good, a dance fund-raiser to benefit the Boston Children's Hospital, is scheduled for Friday, March 27, at the Stationery Factory.
 
The event will support local business owner Tony Riello, who will run April's Boston Marathon as part of the hospital's Miles for Miracles team.
 
March marks one year since Riello’s son, AJ, then 15, underwent open-heart surgery while awaiting a heart transplant at Boston Children’s Hospital. AJ received his transplant shortly after and is now thriving—back in school as a sophomore, looking forward to summer, and preparing for his junior year of high school.
 
The Riello family is committed to giving back to the hospital and community that supported them during their most difficult days.
 
“Boston Children’s saved AJ’s life,” the family shared. “We want to pay forward the love, expertise, and hope we received.”
 
Grooving For Good invites the community to celebrate, dance, and give back. Attendees may choose from two ticket options: $25 for dance party admission or $50 for Dance Marathon entry with a chance to compete for a $1,000 prize.
 
The evening will also feature raffles, a 50/50 drawing, and additional surprises to keep the energy high throughout the night.
