Havana Nights
Step into Old Havana — colorful, alive, and full of soul. Behind every detail of the night is a single purpose: creating dream spaces that bring comfort, joy, and independence to children with special needs — at no cost to their families.
You'll meet the kids whose lives have been changed by a Sunshine on a Ranney Day room reveal — wheelchair-accessible bathrooms, dream bedrooms, in-home therapy spaces — and the ones waiting for their turn next. Their stories are why we gather. COT Latin Band brings the music; the families bring the meaning.
- Stories from the kids & families your gift serves
- A paddle raise to sponsor a child's room directly — 100% goes to kids
- Live & silent auctions funding the next dream room
- Live Latin band, dancers & a vibrant Havana setting
