Illuminate Blacklight Fundraiser by Philanthro for foster youth & the YMCA

by Kevin Wong on March 29, 2011

Friends, I wanted to invite you to this very special event that’s near and dear to my heart. This event does two things: it’s a fundraising event for the YMCA’s foster youth transition program. The proceeds from the event will support the Y’s tremendous work towards helping youth learn life skills, find homes and be given a chance to live a normal life. We’ve all been (may still are) there, growing up becoming adults, except that we were fortunate enough to have the support from others to get where we are today. All you need to do is come out and celebrate with us and the Y will be able to continue helping youth at risk in our community here in Seattle.

The second reason this is a special event is because this is Philanthro’s launch event. Since helping found the Seattle chapter, my team and I have been excited about imaging the different ways we can help various non-profits in our area. We’ve been working on some smaller projects in the past few months getting our personal networks back into volunteerism. We’re quickly learning that this is our chance to come together and share our aspirations to help others who need it most. This event marks Philanthro’s starting point to meet others and seek opportunities to become more philanthropic. It’s easy and we’re all in it together. I hope you can join me.
