This past Friday, our community came together for one of our favorite nights of the year—Ruby Prom! Designed especially for our incredible kids with medical complexities, this prom was packed with love, laughter, dancing, and unforgettable memories.
The evening began with a delicious dinner, generously provided by our friends at Whole Foods Market. From the very first bite, we knew we were in for a special night. Their support helped us kick things off with full hearts and full plates.
Once dinner was wrapped up, the dance floor came alive thanks to an amazing DJ from Kutztown University Radio. With lights flashing and the music pumping, our kids showed off their best dance moves—and we couldn’t stop smiling. The energy was electric, and the joy in the room was absolutely contagious.
We’re also incredibly grateful to Eastern PA Down Syndrome Center for providing the sweetest goodie bags and joining us to celebrate. Your kindness and presence made our night feel even more festive and full of love.
More than anything, Ruby Prom reminded us of the power of inclusion, joy, and community. Watching our kids shine—laughing with friends, busting out dance moves, and simply being celebrated for who they are—was a beautiful reminder of why we do what we do.
To all of our volunteers, families, and partners: thank you for making this night magical. We can’t wait to do it all again next year!
