Why a Halloween-themed Event?
So, why are UPOW and Holland Bloorview hosting a Halloween-themed Danceathon?
Halloween is a holiday that brings all kids and all families together. No matter your [socioeconomic status/means] or ability, Halloween can be for you - but only if we all commit to an accessible Halloween for everyone. This dance-a-thon will help raise awareness about Holland Bloorview's Dear Everybody campaign for an accessible Halloween.
Shiloh Terner, UPOW's founder and CEO, (and her family, particularly her dad!!) takes Halloween very seriously - from Einstein to a bottle of Ketchup to a clown – she's hit the pavement every year and loves to dress up, meet her friends and - of course - get some candy!
WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU THERE!
