Going to the prom is often a rite of passage for teenagers, and yet many young people with differences don’t get to go to prom because their schools or support programs don’t sponsor prom events. That’s where the Tim Tebow Foundation comes in. Every year the Foundation hosts “Night to Shine” events all over the country and world, where people over the age of 14 with differences can come to get their hair and make up done, get their shoes shined, ride in a limo, dance the night away, and be crowned King or Queen of the Prom. It’s a very special program.
Night to Shine has drawn as many as 100,000 people in a single year, thanks to guests with disabilities and an army of volunteers. Looking to find an event near you? Check out the event locations here.
