SungateKids’ three annual fundraisers are our single largest source of unrestricted funding.

Thumbs Up for SungateKids!
Our 2020 “Thumbs Up for SungateKids” fundraiser was a huge success. We invited staff, friends, and supporters of SungateKids to form teams and raise money through online donations.
During the end of campaign celebration at Topgolf on July 30th, Executive Director, Diana Goldberg announced that his year’s event surpassed all expectations, raising nearly $140,000 for SungateKids!

CenturyLink Summer Challenge for SungateKids
Each year CenturyLink carries on their support of SungateKids by inviting its vendors to participate in the CenturyLink Charity Golf Tournament benefiting SungateKids. The 2020 golf tournament and dinner were canceled due to COVID-19, but the CenturyLink (now Lumen) team got creative and offered the CenturyLink Summer Challenge for SungateKids.
Supporters were invited to help increase awareness of child abuse by purchasing a SungateKids bear and posting photos of their bear’s antics on social media during the 6-week fundraising period.

“For the Children” Gala
The 27th Annual SungateKids “For the Children” Gala was scheduled to be held on November 7th at the Four Seasons.
The Virtual Fundraiser, held in place of an in-person gala was a huge success with supporters bidding on silent auction items for a week and over 150 guests logged in to support the Live Auction and Special Appeal hosted by auctioneer, Adam Kevil.
Thanks to everyone who donated!
