The Hasbro Children’s Hospital prom, held at the Hotel Providence in Rhode Island, provided a memorable evening for 50 teens living with chronic illnesses. Funded by a $38,100 grant from the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation, the event featured a 'Roaring ‘20s' theme, complete with mocktails, a DJ, and a transformed ballroom resembling a casino. Quinn Messier, an almost-13-year-old girl from Hope Valley, was the youngest attendee, excited to enjoy a night of fun with friends. The prom is organized by the Adolescent Leadership Council, which helps teens navigate the transition to adulthood while managing their health challenges. Many attendees, including Laila Sarkis and Elizabeth 'Ellie' Dunlop, shared their experiences of living with serious illnesses and the importance of having a supportive community. Dr. Matthew Willis, co-director of Hasbro Children’s Partial Hospital Program, emphasized the significance of such events in providing these teens with the opportunity to experience social milestones, which are often missed due to their medical conditions. As the night unfolded, the teens danced, mingled, and enjoyed a brief escape from their health struggles, embodying the spirit of living in the moment.
