Thank you for being part of the very first Beacon Bits event last Thursday. Year one was an incredible success, and we are deeply grateful for the energy, generosity, and goodwill you brought into the room.
Thanks to you, our final fundraising total reached an amazing $87,350, surpassing our initial estimate for the night. Leta’s powerful words reminded us why this work matters so much. Food security is at the heart of a healthy community, and your support ensures Beacon can continue to stand beside local families who need us most. This result means that over 8,700 meals will be going out in the community because of you. Well done!
Whether you joined us as a ticket buyer, a sponsor, or an invited guest, your participation means the world to us. This event would not have been the same without you. Beacon Bits will return in 2027, and we hope you’ll join us again as the event grows into an annual tradition of generosity and community impact.
If you’d still like to make a donation, you can do so by visiting Donate Online – Beacon Community Services and selecting “Food security” under the Donate To drop down menu.
Feel free to follow us on socials: Facebook; Instagram; LinkedIn
If you’d like to learn more about how you can get involved or explore more about Beacon’s work, please feel free to reach out to me directly anytime.
Thank you once again. Together, we’re making a real difference.
