Best Buddies Ball

When searching the web for new information about dance in Rhode Island, I came across this great organization called "Best Buddies." The mission of Best Buddies is "to create a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment, and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities." Best Buddies seems like an extremely proactive group that constantly organizes and attends numerous fun events. I think it's great that it's a global project and how it seems to be so well established.

The Best Buddies of Rhode Island will be holding a "Best Buddies Ball: A Night with the Stars" on March 27, 2010. The dance will take place from 5-9PM, with dinner included. This is a great chance for the buddies to let loose and enjoy time together. It will be located at The RI Shriners Imperial Room on 1 Rhodes Place, Cranston, RI. For more information, you can call/email Erica Friedlander at (401)228-9700 ericafriedlander@bestbuddies.org
