Embrace Tango Workers is a fundraising campaign created by DNI Tango dedicated to helping tango teachers alleviate current and near future financial pressures caused by the Corona Virus.



Tango communities and teachers in particularly are vulnerable to becoming infected due to the extensive and prolonged physical contact that comes with dancing tango.



In efforts to mitigate the spread of the Corona Virus, all milongas, classes, events, schools and other tango related events are suspended indefinitely here in Buenos Aires. For tango teachers this means 100% loss of income and as such we are turning to the international tango community to ask for financial assistance particularly during these trying times.



At this time we are campaigning for $25,000, all of which (100%) will be administered directly to those professional teachers whom will be the sole beneficiaries. This money will allow tango teachers to remain home and thus avoid risk of infection.



DNI Tango is currently in the process of coordinating with all of the local schools in Buenos Aires and other provinces of Argentina to gather as many teachers as posible so as to offer the greatest coverage posible of this vulnerable group of workers.



Teachers older than 65 years will be be granted priority due to their heightened risk.



We greatly appreciate any and all help.



Que siga la milonga!
