27th Annual Bright Futures Benefit Auction
Saturday, October 19, 2013
Comcast Arena Everett
Did you know that drowning is the second leading cause of death in the United States for children under the age of 14? In Washington State, an average of 25 children and teens drown every year. Most of them are swimming, boating or just playing near the water. These statistics need to change.
This year our auction theme is focused on "Make a Splash", one of the Everett Y's many community programs. We are in our second year of partnering with Everett Public Schools to provide water safety education and swim lessons to third grade students of Hawthorne Elementary School. This program is free to families, thanks the generous support of donors like you. There will be an opportunity during the auction to raise your bid card for "Fund an Item" and support this worthy cause.
See how the Y has made an impact in a different capacity in the lives of these two Everett youth... Val & George...Brothers Growing up in the Y.
