An Accessible Prom to Remember
Funded May 9, 2023From the moment our students entered the venue, they were transported to a world of adventure and exploration. Thanks to your generous contributions, we were able to craft a telephone booth from scratch and design whimsical hot air balloons, immersing our young adventurers in the magic of travel. Each decoration wasn't just an ornament; it was a gateway to a destination, a tactile and visual journey for our students.
Handing them individualized passports, they visited different "countries", a novel experience which for many would have remained a distant dream due to mobility challenges. Your support didn't just fund materials; it funded experiences, memories, and most importantly, the belief that every student, regardless of their challenges, deserves to explore the vast wonders of our world.
The smiles, the excitement, and the wonder in their eyes was an unforgettable sight. It's not just about a prom; it's about providing an equitable experience, ensuring that every student gets to feel the thrill of adventure and the joy of discovery. Your kindness and belief in our vision transformed an ordinary evening into a global expedition, and for that, we are eternally grateful.”
