Some examples of what others have done to help out:
 The Annual Breier Bash
For the past five years, Starlight Starbright volunteer Mark Breier has hosted the “Annual Breier Bash” at Joe’s Sports Bar in Chicago. For only $35, guests enjoy appetizers, an open bar and live music. Funds are raised through ticket sales, a silent auction and a raffle. Last year’s event raised over $5,500!
Karlins’ Dinner Party
Dedicated Starlight Starbright supporters Russ and Laura Karlins invited their personal friends and family to join them for a lovely dinner party in their own home. The Karlins wanted to share Starlight Starbright’s mission and impact with their guests, as it is an organization near to their hearts. Almost $6,000 was raised through donations and a raffle.
Casino Nights
Many companies and organizations want to throw a fun casino event for their employees, clients, or members. Starlight Starbright can help make it happen by providing event consultation, experienced dealers, volunteers, equipment contacts all for a tax deductible donation. Each year, Starlight Starbright partners up with four different groups to host entertaining Casino Nights where guests leave with a memorable impression.

Ruth Windsor in Michigan used her head by talking nails. As a nail technician herself, Ruth has organized an annual Think Tank Networking event where 30 nail technicians join together and exchange innovative ideas and successful strategies. Through contributions and a silent auction, this event has raised $1,000 annually for the past three years.
