A four-hour dance craze will take place from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday at YMCA Downtown, 17 N. Champion St.

The event will help raise funds for Rose Manning, 5 months, who has been diagnosed with biliary atresia, a rare, incurable and life-threatening liver disease. She underwent surgery in July to slow its progression.

Dance instructors of Zumba, belly and line dance will be on hand.

There also will be a 50-50 raffle, chance auction, art and snack vendors, gift baskets and more.

Admission is $10. Water and fruit will be provided.

Sponsors are the YWCA, Z Fitness, Jewish Community Center, Global Health and Fitness, Iron House and Soza Fitness and Wellness.

Donations may be mailed to Raise Up for Rosie, c/o Jaison Lee, 1605 Belmont Ave., Youngstown, OH 44504.
