(KNSI) — The lineup has been finalized for this year’s Women’s Fund Presents: Dancing with Our Stars Live event.
The ninth annual fundraising competition will feature six community star dancers paired with a partner for a chance to win up to $15,000 for the nonprofit of their choice.
The event is supported by the Women’s Fund of the Central Minnesota Community Foundation. It is a competition that brings together community leaders with dancing partners to showcase their skills to raise funds for their chosen nonprofit. Each nonprofit is centered around supporting various programs that benefit girls, women experiencing adversity and elder women.
This year’s lineup is:
Community Star Eunice Adjei with St. Cloud Financial Credit Union will dance with Nick Benner to benefit the Tri-Unity Foundation.
Community Star Abbey Graves with Abbey Graves Productions will dance with Tuan (David) Le to benefit the Indy Foundation.
Community Star Ashley Green with Green Thumb, Etc. will dance with Jon Skuza to benefit Open Hearts Home, Inc.
Community Star Angie Hill with Minnesota Concrete Products will dance with Michael Adams to benefit Anna Marie’s Alliance.
Community Star Kevin Johnson with K. Johnson Construction will dance with Janell Missler to benefit the Tanner’s Team Foundation.
Community Star Matt Love with the St. Cloud Fire Department will dance with Savanna Bain to benefit the Greater St. Cloud Public Safety Foundation.
Dance couples will begin practicing their routines months before the competition. The final competition scores will be determined through a combination of judges’ scores and dollars raised for nonprofits, with 40% of the score coming from the judges and 60% from fundraising efforts.
This year’s Dancing with Our Stars will be at the College of Saint Benedict on June 9th, 2025.
In 2024, $463,005.93 was raised by dancers and special events held in the area by the selected nonprofits.
