Night to Shine, is very close to the heart of the foundation’s founder, Tim Tebow.
“When I was 15 years old, I began to realize the importance of fighting for people who can’t fight for themselves,” said Tebow. “As a foundation, we are so passionate about people with special needs, and this event is a great time to tell them how much they are loved by God and by all of us.”
Every guest of Night to Shine will enter this complimentary event on a red carpet, complete with a warm welcome from a cheering crowd and friendly paparazzi. Once inside, guests will receive the royal treatment, including hair and makeup stations, shoe shining stations, corsages and boutonnieres, a karaoke room and, of course, dancing! The highlight of the night will come when every one of the Night to Shine guests is crowned as a king or queen of the prom.
The Tim Tebow Foundation encourages everyone to get involved in some way. Whether by attending as a guest, volunteering time the evening of the event, donating money to this cause or praying for the lives that will be touched, there are plenty of ways to be involved in Night to Shine.
