About
Night to Shine is an unforgettable prom night experience, centered on God’s love, for people with special needs ages 14 and older. On Friday, February 12, 2021, Night to Shine will celebrate its seventh anniversary! The 2020 event saw 721 churches from around the world came together on one night to host Night to Shine for approximately 110,000 honored guests through the support of 215,000 volunteers! Even though Night to Shine 2021 will be a virtual experience due to COVID-19, we are excited to serve and celebrate as many people with special needs as possible in a new and unique way!
Last year, Night to Shine Hays saw over 170 guests (individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities) from 17 towns and 15 counties in central and northwest Kansas celebrated by more than 500 volunteers. While we know that this year will look much different, we will still do everything in our power to make this night special for our honored guests.






"We are trying to make a difference in their lives, and we are trying to make them feel like they are kings and queens, because I know that's how God sees them, and that's how we should see them."
-Tim Tebow
