We don’t even have words. Last night was our very first fundraising gala, and we are overwhelmed with gratitude and emotion. We met some of you for the first time, we got to hear some of your stories, and we shared a lot of laughs. A very special thank you to and for making last night bigger and better than we’d hoped for, to for the perfect venue, the most personable staff, and food and drinks that people are still talking about, to for keeping the party going all night long, and to all of the sponsors, businesses, family and friends that donated to our silent auction, volunteered their time, or showed up to support our cause . We hope last night was as memorable for you as it was for us, and we hope to see you all back next year!

If you find this on our FB or IG, and you have a Tik Tok account, please go follow this kid. He was hoping to get 1k followers by March, but I would love it if he hit 2k. No, I don’t know him, but the smile on his face when he got to race his go kart got me in the feels. Links in comments!

Lori Pinson made me feel like I was having tea with a friend this morning instead of sitting in a FOX 2 Detroit news studio in front of a live camera. We were honored to be able to share Deegan’s story Lori, and I was so grateful for your kindness.

My favorite speaking engagement thus far was booked by a ten-year-old. I’m seriously considering hiring her as our manager!!

Bobcat Innovation at Perry Innovation Center, we were so honored to be a part of your Hope Week!

These were upper school kids (6th, 7th, and 8th), and I was stunned by the respect they showed for us, and for each other while we spoke. Their questions were genuine, and were asked with compassion their parents should be proud of. I hope you carry Deegan’s story with you through life Bobcats, and it reminds you to be kind, to be brave, and that there’s ALWAYS hope in tomorrow.
