THANK YOU!

Community Centric Fundraising Philanthropy

THANK YOU!

Thank you to everyone who came out and supported BrightSpark on Saturday! Our 2024 Annual Event was a huge success, thanks to the community of supporters who laughed, connected, and celebrated with us!

The funds raised at this event will empower BrightSpark to deepen our commitment to nurturing and sustaining child-centered, antiracist early learning communities. With your support, we can continue our services to families, childcare providers, and caregivers and strengthen our advocacy efforts this year.

Because of your generosity, we can ensure that every child in King and Pierce counties has equitable access to culturally responsive, high-quality early learning opportunities.

We are incredibly grateful for your ongoing partnership and look forward to all we will accomplish together in the future.

In community,

Phoebe Sade, Executive Officer & Donny Willeto, External Affairs Officer
