2019 In Review and What’s in store for 2020
2019 for The Shine Project Foundation turned out to be another great year of free Shine events and new connections between special needs families, local businesses and organizations, and our communities. This past year, we put together the Signature Shine Beach Fun Day Series in late September to end of October. We hosted the events in Encinitas, which was our 5th year, and Carlsbad and Oceanside, which was our first year ever. The outpouring of love, support, and volunteers to help make these free events were amazing.
And for 2020…..
- Host our 1st ever Shine fundraiser, The Good Vibes Reggaefest, an all ages music festival with live reggae bands, DJs, live art, food and retail vendors, arts and crafts, and a raffle all to raise money and awareness for our nonprofit so that we can continue to provide free enrichment events to children with special needs.
- Develop a Resource page on our website with a list of local resources, businesses, and organizations that would help families access their communities and get their needs met.
- Provide more free Signature Shine events including our Discovery Arts, Field day and Family Picnic, and Beach Fun Days.
