Pooday
National Ahmad “Captain Poodaman” Butler Day also known as Pooday. Pooday is our annual celebration. A day to come together to celebrate, honor, and encourage Superhero Kids that are battling cancer and other life threatening diseases. Because too many of the children we serve get the chance to celebrate life’s milestones such as graduation, prom, wedding, etc.
Pooday is meant to be their “BIG DAY”. Pooday celebrations are held at kid friendly venues, and is a FREE invitation only event where Superhero Kids are celebrated and awarded certificates of achievement and of medals of bravery to encourage them during their battle. They are Draped with Superhero Kid on Deck capes by their loving parents, also celebrated and encouraged during the Superhero Kid Parade. Poodapalooza is the game segment of Pooday. Which allows participants to play fun games for prizes to amusement parks, museums, aquariums, family entertainment centers, restaurants and more.
