The Dance Into The Light photographs by John Timothy Merica are a part of an ongoing fundraising project for the Rising Stars Program. Rising Stars is a mentoring program for children ages 9-17. The goal of Rising Stars is to offer a place for youth to develop themselves through a variety of expressive, creative, confidence boosting methods. The program is hosted on a ranch 45 miles west, outside of Billings, Montana. All of the proceeds from the sales of the Dance Into the Light images are donated directly to the Rising Stars Program.
