Delynne B. and Garth H. Peay World Dance Scholarship
A scholarship to honor their contribution.
We are establishing an endowed scholarship in honor of Delynne and Garth Peay. Before her passing Delynne was a mentor, coach, teacher, partner and friend to many of us for over 40 years. Her husband Garth danced with the folk dancers, taught and danced professionally, and supported Delynne in her position at BYU.
Every Donation Helps — One for all and all for one!
Let's come together as Folk Dance Alumni to make this happen in their memory and help current folk dancers to experience the World Dance program.
