The OD Pavilion Social & Shag Club has many charities that we donate to on an annual basis.
Our 2025 charities are…..
Our Formula begins with the young people in Clubs – especially those who need us most. It calls for us to consistently provide the most powerful Club Experience possible – by implementing the Five Key Elements for Positive Youth Development, offering high-yield activities and providing targeted programs – all of which help youth achieve priority outcomes. Then, because we also know that attending the Club more frequently and over a greater length of time makes young people more likely to achieve positive outcomes, Clubs must pursue strategies to increase attendance, program participation and member retention.

Our objective is to provide a safe place where children who are victims of abuse can receive a coordinated child abuse investigation. Children who come to the CRC receive a forensic medical exam, forensic interview, advocacy, and education. Each child is assigned a child advocate who will ensure they are kept safe and that their rights are protected. Our goal is to empower these children and their family/caretakers with the tools they need to recognize the signs of abuse and prevent it. We want the children who come here to grow from child abuse victims to strong healthy survivors. LINK to Website
In 1991 a group of friends who were bound by a common love for the music and culture that surrounds shag dancing came together to discuss how one of their group was in financial need due to bad health. They decided that they wanted to help out their friend’s situation. From that meeting the Hall of Fame Foundation was born. In their efforts to aid a friend, the members of The Foundation found a gift for themselves…they discovered the gift of giving. The spirit born in that meeting and fed on the gift of giving has grown over the years. LINK to Website
