Message from
FATHER BOB MAGUIRE A.M.
APO Arts Academy
“In my capacity as Chairman of The Father Bob Maguire Foundation (FBMF) and other charity organizations I have been involved in, I have witnessed the effect of marginalization and homelessness on the youth of today. Unfortunately, many deny themselves a future as a result of various social issues including low self-esteem, substance abuse, lack of direction &/or family breakdown. Dance World Studios understands the FBMF mission and similarly, strives to empower young people to take control of their lives by arming them with knowledge.
I have worked in the South Melbourne and St Kilda areas for over thirty years with victims of social disease and the contrast between this world and Dance World Studios is striking. Of course, no school, organization or individual is impervious to these afflictions, however, Dance World Studios encourages its young to challenge themselves and to focus on a greater goal.”
