The 12th Annual Brighten the Night Gala & Live Auction benefitting Carson’s Crusaders Foundation will be held on September 21, 2023!
Please join us for the BRIGHTEN THE NIGHT IN YOUR BLACK AND WHITE GALA! The Dueling Pianos and Black and White themed event will be returning this year so don your black and white attire and enjoy an evening filled with high energy dueling pianos, signature drinks, a catered dinner, entertainment, and exciting auction items for bid.
Carson’s Crusaders Foundation assists children and families affected by pediatric cancer. Did you know the AVERAGE cost of a pediatric cancer diagnosis is over $830,000 spanning three years? The emotional impact of a child with cancer is devastating and managing the staggering financial toxicity of the treatment is practically impossible. This toxicity drives Carson’s Crusaders Foundation to work tirelessly to raise money to help support North Texas families affected by pediatric cancers. In 10 years, Carson’s legacy has raised over $2 MILLION DOLLARS ($2,185,407) for more than 1,100 precious families enduring the unthinkable. As good stewards of your donations, Carson’s Crusaders Foundation has funded more than 45,000 trips to the hospital for life saving cancer treatments by distributing over $1 MILLION in direct assistance (gas cards, parking, sibling gifts, Superstar activities, scholarships, and more) to our deserving families. We’ve also invested in programs to promote local education and advocacy for pediatric cancer awareness through our Paint the Town Gold initiatives.
Proceeds raised from Brighten the Night will directly affect children and families battling pediatric cancer in North Texas.
It is because of your support at events such as Brighten the Night that Carson’s Crusaders Foundation is able to continue to honor the legacy of Carson Richardson by supporting families affected by pediatric cancers.
We are seeking silent and live auction items to be bid and sold during the 12th Annual Brighten the Night Gala and Fundraiser. Popular items include gift cards or certificates for products and services, merchandise items, event admission tickets, and more. Your support and donation will be heavily advertised within the community and surrounding areas via local and social media. You will receive valuable exposure simply by donating an item. Donations may be tax deductible.
We are also seeking restaurant gift cards in $25 increments or more. Our goal is 200 donated restaurant gift cards in order to auction and/or sell during the event on September 21st.
Will you join us in helping make a difference in the lives of North Texas families affected by pediatric cancer?
