A Magical Night Celebrating 30 Years of Rise & Shine
Our 30th Anniversary Gala, “A Legacy That Shines,” was a beautiful celebration of community, generosity, and three decades of making a difference for children and families. The evening was filled with joy, meaningful connections, and a shared commitment to helping our scholars shine.
Thank you to every guest, sponsor, donor, volunteer, staff member, board member, and community partner who came together to make this unforgettable night possible. To everyone who participated in the paddle raise, auctions, and wine pull—your generosity helps sustain the learning, encouragement, and opportunities our scholars deserve.
