Success:
As a result of Night of 100 Stars, approximately $11,000 was raised for Room For Joy.  An increase of three thousand dollars from the previous year, the success from the event must be credited to Co-Chairs Lila Metcalf, owner of Urban Kidz and Tory Smock, Director of Room For Joy.

Cameron's Superman Room For Joy
Money raised from the first Night of 100 Stars in 2009, created a  dream room for 18-year-old Cameron. Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and Diabetes, Cameron has undergone a liver transplant, as well, displaying his strength and perseverance time and time again. Having overcome various obstacles in his own life, it is no surprise that Cameron loves Superman. Room For Joy took his love of the comic book hero and brought the pages to life. The Man of Steel flies around his new room amid a 3-D cityscape of Metropolis reminding Cameron of his own Superman qualities. With a new place to call his own, Cameron now has a Room For Joy.
