One of V-103 host Ryan Cameron's most popular charity ideas for his foundation over the years has been his annual father-daughter dance. Ryan himself loves to celebrate the special bond he and other dads have with their daughters.
Starting six years ago with 400 people, he's now grown it to 750 people at the Marriott Marquis this Sunday.
Cameron said he has added a second dance floor this year in the Marriott’s biggest ballroom. “We didn’t want people dancing over their dessert. We’re outgrowing places. It’s amazing. Even with this economy, to have sold out a month in advance just shows what’s going on.”
His two daughters Kai and Ryan Megan join him every year. (He also has a son Cayden) This year, they bought vintage dresses at a local dress shop. He has a matching tux and bowtie. "It's going to be something out of Walt Disney World," he said.
The age range of the daughters is anywhere from 4 to 40s, he said.
The theme song? "Dance With Your Father" by Luther Vandross. "A lot of guys have never danced with their daughters," he said. "This should be sponsored by Kleenex watching grown men cry."
Here’s the summary of what his foundation does off his Web site:
The Ryan Cameron Foundation (RCF) was established to provide Atlanta's youth with the tools needed to empower them for their future leadership roles. The Foundation strives to provide young people with a forum, which includes: mentoring, tutoring, volunteering, celebrity appearances, life experiences, self-reflection, leadership instruction and personal coaching
