Wow. Just wow. It’s hard to believe it’s been less than a week since our inaugural Smash Bash, and we’re still riding the wave of joy and gratitude from that unforgettable evening.
💜 You all arrived in your best purple outfits, honoring our little angel with such love.
💜 Your energy filled the room with laughter and joy.
💜 You came prepared to support children and families facing daunting challenges, bringing hope through your generosity.
💜 Most importantly, you opened your hearts. During the presentations and videos, everyone paused to truly embrace our mission.
As our team planned this event, we aimed not only to raise funds and awareness for our cause but to create a heartfelt celebration of love for Emerson and for each other—and that’s exactly what we achieved. This was not just another charity event; it was a powerful tribute to Emerson’s legacy and a testament to the incredible impact we’ve made as a community. Each of you has played a vital role in changing the lives of countless children. Thank you for giving them a fighting chance at the life they deserve.
In that spirit we are thrilled to share that Smash Bash 2024 raised over $200,000! This remarkable amount will fund critical research and provide radiation calendars for children for years to come. We are overwhelmed with gratitude for each and every one of you.
What made the evening even more special was the realization that we share a personal connection with every donor. It was a poignant reminder of how deeply Emerson was loved and how extraordinary our community truly is.
In the coming days and weeks, we’ll send out more updates from the Bash, including photos and videos from the event. In the meantime, visit our Smash Bash gallery (password: SMASHING) by Rachel Yatteau Photography. We, also, encourage you to share your own memories on social media and tag us at @Smasherson on Facebook and Instagram.
Thank you once again for everything.
