AT A GLANCE

The 25th Annual NightLights presented by Blue Federal Credit Union held on December 1 was a huge success and we couldn’t have done it without You! A huge thank you to our Sponsors, Business Members, Guardians, Volunteers, Ambassadors and our Community for coming together to ensure the lives of children we we serve were a little brighter this year. Attendees witnessed the fantastic custom light show by Blazen Illuminations and performances by the Academy of Divabee. Santa even made a special appearance with Dude Dad to present the 30lb chocolate Santa from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory!

As a result of your tremendous support, dedication, and effort, we exceeded our goal of $350,000 and saw record attendance during the NightLights event held at First Presbyterian Church in Fort Collins.

Although we saw another year of increased need for services and healing support, thanks to your involvement, we were able to be there for our children when they needed us most. Your donation and support during our NightLights outreach has made all the difference in helping us to reach further into the darkness, and to be a light for children in our community who have been abused, neglected, abandoned or are at-risk.

The 50’ tall tree illuminated in blue lights has been an iconic statement for 25 years bringing awareness to child abuse as blue is the national color symbolizing child abuse. A special thank you to Saunders and Heath Steel for their critical support with the build and teardown of the tree. We could not do this event without you!
