One week ago, hundreds of supporters, community partners, and friends of Rodman for Kids came together at the Renaissance Boston Seaport District Hotel for the 24th Annual Celebration for Kids, an unforgettable party raising funds to ensure kids have a bright year ahead!
The evening may be over, but the impact continues. We’re excited to share a look back at the people, performances, and moments that made the 24th Annual Celebration for Kids so special.
A Night of Unforgettable Moments
Throughout the evening, guests experienced firsthand the impact of investing in the organizations and people supporting young people across Massachusetts.
Among the highlights were our incredible student emcees, JT and Natoleph, from New Heights Charter School, who took the stage to help lead the evening’s program. Having participated in Theatre for Kids experiences themselves, their presence was a powerful reminder of how access to new opportunities can broaden what’s possible for young people.
Guests were also treated to a special performance from Adelina Mitchell, starring as Elphaba in the Broadway touring cast of WICKED, bringing the magic of live theatre to the Celebration stage.
We were proud to honor Broadway In Boston with the 3rd Annual Real Deal Award, recognizing their extraordinary partnership and shared commitment to making live theatre more accessible to young people through Rodman for Kids’ Theatre for Kids program.
The Impact Extends Beyond the Ballroom
At Rodman for Kids, we believe every young person deserves access to the programs, resources, and opportunities they need to dream, grow, and succeed.
As Executive Director Amy Rossman shared during the evening, behind every person who makes a difference in a child’s life is a network of organizations, relationships, and resources helping make that impact possible.
That’s why we work alongside youth-serving organizations to strengthen their capacity, connect leaders with valuable resources and relationships, and create experiences that might otherwise be out of reach for the kids they serve.
Every connection made, every partnership strengthened, and every dollar raised at Celebration for Kids helps make more of those opportunities possible.
To our guests, sponsors, partners, volunteers, and everyone who helped bring this year’s Celebration to life: THANK YOU!
Your generosity and commitment help us continue broadening horizons, strengthening organizations, and creating opportunities for more young people across Massachusetts.
Together, we’re building brighter futures and broadening horizons for thousands of kids.
