Joy Prom is a full-scale prom for young adults with special needs. The night is put on by a collection of unlikely volunteers gathered for a common purpose - to make this an unforgettable evening for the guests. In Las Vegas, Joy Prom occurred consecutively in 2009 and 2010. Nationally, there have been dozens of Joy Prom's and the inspiration continues to build and flourish. The first two years Joy Prom occurred due to the facilitation of a small, local church. Because of explosive demand, it was quickly discovered that the event needed to become a separate entity and it will be turned into a 501 c (3) to ensure its legacy and continue to be hosted in the most efficient manner. This transition entails the need for additional donations of professional services such as law, insurance, and accounting firms as well as more community partners. We are deeply saddened to communicate that due to the re-organization of the Joy Prom Las Vegas this year, the heartbreaking decision had to be made that there will not be a Joy Prom in 2011. However, to make the event bigger and better for 2012, a formal board of directors has been appointed and the process to create formal charitable foundation status has begun to deliver the best experience possible for our future guests and volunteers. The next prom is slated for May 12, 2012 and will be graciously hosted at the M Resort. Please visit our contact page for more information on attending, donating or volunteering. |
