Support Your Community

Support BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ and individuals facing barriers to circus education to become leaders in the industry through backing them with your donation to take our teacher training!

 

We are aiming to raise $6000 from your support, which Paper Doll Militia will match! This will create the opportunity for 12 aerialists to take our course on 100% Scholarship within a year-long period.

Scholarship Goals

The aim of our scholarship  programs is to create greater accessibility to leadership within the aerial community for those experiencing barriers to their circus education. The remote format of our program allows us to broaden our reach and support aerialists from all over the world in building their teaching and leadership skills. This has also opened up more opportunities to support aerialists living in countries that have fewer resources and access to Teacher Trainings. 

 

In just under 2 years, Paper Doll Militia has been able to give 15 Artful Leader’s scholarships and 8 Fly Black Aerialist Scholarships towards our Teacher Training programs for a value of $22,000.  These recipients come from all over the globe, including the Philippines, Greece, Mexico, Brazil, & Cyprus, In order to continue to run these programs, we need help from people like you to make it possible! 

 

More about the Matching Campaign

We are running a matching campaign, all the funds raised will be matched by Paper Doll Militia. Our goal is to be able to provide a total of 12 Teacher Training Course Tuitions over the course of the next year, at a value of $12,000. If we can raise $6,000 we will match those funds and meet our goal!

 

About our Artful Leaders Scholarship: 

This 100% scholarship is awarded to those who are experiencing barriers to their circus education and who are committed to the craft of safe and quality aerial arts instruction. BIPOC & LGBTQIA+ are encouraged to apply. 

We believe that increasing accessibility and encouraging inclusion within leadership roles will add to the richness of the circus industry as a whole. Learn more about our Artful Leaders Scholarship.

Fly Black Aerialists Scholarship program:

Since 2020, Paper Doll Militia has worked closely with the founders of the Fly Black Aerialist Group to provide full 100% scholarship to selected members from the group. This scholarship  seeks to support Black aerialists by creating opportunities for more representation in the recreational aerial studio world, specifically in teaching and leadership roles.  Individuals are chosen by an internal panel of leaders in the group, and are based on commitment, dedication, and active membership within the group.  Learn more about the Fly Black Aerialists @FlyBlackAerialists
