Description

California Youth Services is thrilled to announce our highly anticipated Star Light Star Bright 2024 Gala, scheduled for May 4th, 2024, at the Marriott Irvine Spectrum. As we embark on this spectacular event, our ambitious goal is to raise $350,000! This optimism is grounded in the generosity of our steadfast supporters, the enthusiasm of our esteemed guests, and the invaluable contributions from individuals like yourself who have graciously donated items for our auction. Together, these elements align seamlessly, positioning us to make this gala an extraordinary success. In doing so, we are not only expressing gratitude but also setting the stage for a bright and promising future for the initiatives spearheaded by California Youth Services.

In the coming year, our aim is to surpass previous fundraising efforts, enabling California Youth Services to further empower teenagers towards a secure and promising future. By offering crucial services such as education, assessment, crisis intervention, and counseling, we strive to guide adolescents through the complexities of substance abuse challenges. A fundamental belief of our mission is to ensure that no family is turned away based on financial constraints.

Our annual auction plays a pivotal role in sustaining our mission, relying on donated items to minimize costs. This year, we are emphasizing contributions for inclusion in both the live and silent auctions of our Gala.

We extend an invitation for you to consider supporting this significant event, providing a platform to highlight your company's goods and services to an audience of over 300 influential leaders and families spanning Orange County.

Your generous contribution will have a meaningful impact on the teens and parents engaged in California Youth Services programs. The proceeds from this event will directly support intervention and prevention initiatives addressing substance abuse, academic hurdles, and behavioral/mental health challenges. The success of our programs hinges on the active involvement of corporate and community supporters, fostering collaborative partnerships.

We appreciate your thoughtful consideration of this request.
