So Kids SOAR 2025 Holiday Celebration

SKS Holiday Celebration 2025

So Kids SOAR (Formerly known as Dreams For Kids DC) invites you to join us at Washington Nationals Youth Baseball Academy for our annual holiday celebration for youth with physical and developmental disabilities, presented by the Washington Nationals Youth Baseball Academy & Fight For Children! We can't wait to celebrate you at our one of a kind event for youth with disabilities! Special thank you to the Washington Nationals Youth Baseball Academy for donating their venue in-kind to us again this year.

Throughout the year, we hold adaptive clinics for our special needs children--anything from waterskiing to football. The So Kids SOAR Holiday Celebration is not only a fun event for our volunteers, participants, and their families; moreover, a way for our youth with disabilities to give back to the less fortunate. At the holiday event, we will provide all guests with activities, such as wrapping presents for homeless children, stuffing Kong balls for animal shelters, etc. Each one of our youth participants will receive a gift bag as they leave, a thank you for helping us give back, and also to show them that their disability cannot hold them back from performing their own philanthropy.

Who: This event is open to volunteers, parents/guardians, and youth with a disability of any type

We need 2-3 volunteers with cars to assist with dropping off gifts after the event! Please email [email protected] if you are interested!

When: Friday (SETUP) December 12th from 6 - 8PM and Saturday, December 13th, 2025 from 9:30 AM - 12:30 PM
