Pomeroy Recreation & Rehibiliation Center

What's up guys! So as all of you lovely people know, Rotaract supports many different causes, with one of them being Janet Pomeroy and The Pomeroy Recreation and Rehabilitation Center. To state their goal:
 (Picture and quote taken from here)

"The mission of Pomeroy Recreation and Rehabilitation Center is to provide recreational, vocational and educational opportunities for people with disabilities through programs and services that encourage self-expression, promote personal achievement, and lead to greater independence." To sum up that beautiful statement, it's a wonderful place for those who have mental or physical disabilities to be themselves, to have fun, and to learn how to live their every day lives.

With that being said, every year the Center holds a prom for all the young adults that go there. Whether we liked it or not, prom was that coming-of-age night for everyone and it's an event that everyone should experience. Unfortunately, we all know prom is extremely (and ridiculously) expensive and having special needs won't help with the cost. That's why Rotaract is proud to help and fund raise for this prom so this magical night is able to become reality for everyone!
