Sunday's dancing-themed event raises funds for 19 different Cherry Hill schools, an organizer says.
CHERRY HILL, NJ — Time is running out to buy tickets for Sunday's "Dancing With the Cherry Hill Stars," an event that benefits 19 schools in that municipality, an event organizer said.
The funds raised "directly impact the teachers and students by funding innovative teacher grant initiatives," said Jon Cohen, president of the Cherry Hill Education Association.
The event is the foundation's "signature annual fundraiser," and has raised more than $1 million for 19 Cherry Hill Schools in the past 14 years, he said. This year's theme is Hollywood, he continued.

Like the ABC-TV show "Dancing With The Stars", the event will pair a local celebrity with either a professional dancer, dance studio owner, choreographer or similar expert for a night of dancing, Cohen said.
