ShutterBoothing in the Community – While we receive about a dozen requests per week to donate our booth and services to various charities, we felt this one was really special. We are proud to donate a ShutterBooth Photo Booth for the St. Joseph Children Hospital Annual Prom taking place tonight!!<\/p>\n

St. Joseph\u2019s Children\u2019s Hospital\u2019s Annual Prom serves pediatric patients who were unable to attend their own prom due to hospitalization or who, due to life-limiting illness, will most likely never get the opportunity. The Hospital\u2019s Prom is traditionally an all-day affair. Beginning in the early afternoon, patients arrive at the hospital or are escorted from their rooms to begin their day of pampering. Professional hair and wig styling, taffeta-layered and jewel-adorned prom dresses, tuxedo fittings, fragrant corsages and doting makeup artists make this event everything that a traditional prom would be. That is, of course, except for the attendees. These special kids, whose everyday life is filled with a multitude of physical and emotional tests, get to be normal for one precious day.<\/p>\n

The St. Joseph\u2019s Children\u2019s Hospital Prom is one of several tools our hospital and its Child Life team employ to return normalcy to these kids\u2019 lives. The majority of patients served by Prom are frequently hospitalized or developmentally delayed, requiring homeschooling and taking away many possibilities for normal peer interaction. This event helps relieve them from their burdens and allows them to spend a night free from their illness. The parents and families of these special children are just as affected by their condition. . Creating a non-stressful environment, such as Prom, allows kids to be kids and parents to be parents.<\/p>\n

Any community support is welcomed and encouraged. Whether you choose to participate as an individual, a group, or as an established organization, your involvement will impact each of our young patients.<\/p>\n

Several involvement options are available, including workplace collections, event sponsorship, in-kind donations and services, or volunteering at the event. Contact us using the information below and we will match any of your organization\u2019s philanthropic goals.<\/p>\n
