Movie & Game Nights
We occasionally hold Movie & Game nights featuring movies on the big screen at Sherry’s House, in Ben’s Corner – The Arts & Crafts Room. The winter months can be especially isolating as you face cold and flu season with a sick child. It may be difficult to get out of the house and do something different but Sherry’s House offers a clean, safe and fun environment.
Birthday Parties
Why Me can help provide birthday parties for children. Our Arts & Crafts room is the perfect space to host a small gathering for family and close friends to celebrate a child’s big day. We enable parents to visit and enjoy the day with their guests to create special birthday memories by assisting with preparations and cleaning.
Tickets/Group Outings
Throughout the year Why Me receives tickets and invitations to various concerts, shows, athletic events and more. We are able to provide our families with a number fun and unique experiences. Some events are planned as group outings while others are available for individual participation.
