The vision was a dazzling evening at Butterfield Country Club with enough sparkle and shine to illuminate the important work of Brightpoint. Hosted by the West Suburban Auxiliary of Brightpoint, this beautiful event was a switch from the prior 70 years, when the Auxiliary hosted a Derby Day party. This inaugural evening, beautifully chaired by Claudine Schramko, was a hit! Guests dazzled and donated while live music played. There were moving testimonials by those whom Brightpoint has helped over the years. The organization serves more than 37,000 children and families each year, providing early learning mental health and wellness, family support, and child welfare services. brightpoint.org
