Cool Kids Gala

The Cool Kids Gala is a night created with purpose, love, and intention—designed to celebrate children with special needs and the families who support them every day. Presented by the Ro Cares Foundation in partnership with The Transformation Lab, this event exists to remind every child that they are seen, valued, and worthy of joy.

More than a formal gathering, the Cool Kids Gala is an experience. Families will enjoy an uplifting evening filled with connection, music, and moments that place the spotlight where it belongs—on the kids. Professional athletes, community leaders, and local partners come together to create an environment rooted in confidence, encouragement, and belonging.

Through this collaboration, the Ro Cares Foundation and The Transformation Lab continue their shared commitment to serving youth, empowering families, and building stronger communities across Michigan. The Cool Kids Gala is not just a celebration—it’s a reminder of what happens when care, purpose, and community come together.
