ATTEND NIGHT TO SHINE

There are THREE WAYS TO ATTEND Night to Shine:

 

• Honored Prom Guest - a Special Needs Individual aged 14 yrs or older. Guests may bring a plus one, or 'buddy', but are not required to do so. If a prom guest does not bring a buddy, we will provide one!

• Buddy to Prom Guest - accompanying adult, aged 18 yrs or older, must agree to online background check, up to two buddies allowed per Honored Prom Guest.

• Caregiver Respite Dinner Attendee - Caregivers are invited to attend an evening of dinner and entertainment--this is a separate event from the prom. Caregivers will be able to check in alongside an Honored Guest, meet the Honored Guest's Host Buddy for the evening, then attend this separate event just for them.

TESTIMONIALS FROM NTS-FREMONT

"The experience was wonderful. Our son loved it! We can’t even imagine all the work that went into planning and putting on the event. Our son is now almost 30 and our special needs adults are not embraced by the world at large. This event had him smiling from ear to ear, he loved dressing up and being around people. The whole process was amazing. It was our first time and we are still glowing. Thank you so much for everyone involved in this amazing effort!"

 

"Wonderful experience. You touched the hearts of all who participated."

"We had the most amazing night to cherish forever. We plan to make this a tradition for our family. I have to say every moment spent there made me feel so humble and strengthened as a special needs mom at the same time."

 

"You all not only made our daughter feel special but us too!! We are so very grateful for making our daughter’s first prom so special!! Thank you so much!!"

THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
