Support the Starry Night Senior Prom
Saturday, July 25, 2026 • Sheraton Bloomington Hotel
Sabathani Community Center invites you to sponsor the 3rd Annual Starry Night Senior Prom—a beloved celebration that honors the wisdom, style, and spirit of older adults in our community.
This unforgettable evening is co-presented by Sabathani Community Center and VOA Minnesota’s Elder Connection and YAP (Youth Aids Project) and will be hosted this year at the Sheraton Bloomington Hotel. With this exciting new venue comes higher event costs, and we’re seeking sponsors to help make the night accessible, joyful, and truly special for every attendee.
Why sponsor?
Sponsoring the Starry Night Senior Prom is more than a donation or gift-in-kind. Your support helps create a transformative evening of joy, connection, and belonging—and ensures older adults are celebrated with the dignity and delight they deserve.
In return, your organization will be recognized as a compassionate community leader, inspiring others to join in uplifting those who have given so much. Together, we can make this year’s prom an unforgettable celebration of life, resilience, and community.
