I found out today that G-Unity, the foundation established by rapper 50 Cent, is going to pay for my stay in New York while I attend the Dance Theatre of Harlem Summer Intensive. They didn't have to give it. It's cool that they did. My family couldn't really afford the $1,500 it costs for me to live in New York for six weeks.
Now I have to try and cut grass and do other chores for my neighbors so I can earn some spending money and part of the remaining costs. Yesterday, we went to the bank to deposit some money I earned planting an orchard over the weekend. Tante Becca told us how much it costs to live in New York, and my cousin Roland said I could have his money because he was afraid I wouldn't be able to go.
We also found out that The Today Show will mention all this at about 9:20 a.m. on Friday. Hope you'll all be watching!

About Me
- Andrew Gaddie
- I was born in Chicago, Ill., and moved to Indianapolis three years ago to live with my dad, my aunt Rebecca, my step-brother Alex and my cousins Raphael and Roland. Alex, Roland and I are homeschooled. I have studied ballet for three years and tap for one year. I'm really excited about studying hip-hop this summer. I have appeared in "Don Quixote," "The Nutcracker" and "On Earth We Stand." I plan to be a triple threat: dancer, actor, singer on Broadway. I have a black cat named Slynx. When I'm not dancing, I like skateboarding, playing video and computer games, and hanging out with my friends and family.
