Good News Friday!

In honor of this season of giving, last week I highlighted the many ways Imagine! employees go way beyond their daily duties to support Imagine! and the people we serve.

Today, I’d like to highlight a few ways in which some wonderful local businesses raised money for Imagine! this past summer and fall.


On July 23, Grossen Bart Brewery hosted “The Mane Event” – The Grossen Bart Brewery Annual Beard and Mustache Contest. While that sounds cool to begin with, this part was even cooler - a portion of proceeds from the event ($200) were donated to Imagine! to support Imagine!’s Innovations Advocacy Council’s Fall Formal.

On August 8, Next Door Boulder donated 50% of sales to Imagine! from participating tables, which netted a total of $375.

On September 12, Samples World Bistro donated 30% of their dinner sales to support Imagine!’s mission of creating a world of opportunity for all abilities. The event was a huge success, bringing in $400!

During the week of September 23-30, the good folks at BCinteriors pledged to dedicate a portion of the proceeds from their Inventory Clearance Sale to Imagine!. Sale purchases resulted in a donation of $2,500 to Imagine!.

On October 15, First Summit Realty hosted a Halloween “Monster Bash,” and encouraged attendees to donate to Imagine!. The encouragement must have worked, as we received $1,500!

On October 22, ALEX AND ANI donated 15% of sales during their “Charmed By Charity Soiree” to Imagine!, which resulted in a $200 donation.

And on December 10, our good friends at MOOV completed their 2nd annual Kettlebells for Christmas fundraiser for Imagine!. After two hours and over 6,000 kettlebell swings, they were able to collect $3,619 in pledges to support Imagine!’s mission of creating a world of opportunity for all abilities!

We are so fortunate to work in a community that supports our mission and the people we serve in so many fun and creative ways.

And here’s a cool bonus demonstration of our wonderful community’s support. The picture below is of local neighborhood carolers singing Holiday tunes last week for the residents of Imagine!’s Santa Fe Group Home in Broomfield.
