Although the only thing forever consistent is inconsistency, Joy will always be a way to bring people together! Today we wanted to share a special note from an incredible experience in working with the special olympics:

“Thank you Joy Mobile for being part of our event yesterday. It was wonderful to hear that 91 people visited your Joy Mobile and got to experience first-hand the amazing calming moments you can have in that beautiful mobile. Your kindness with every guest made the experience extra special. We are appreciative of your great service you provide to our community. We look forward to the next time that we get the honor at SOMN to work with you once again.”
