The Rodman Celebration was a great night to enjoy Boston’s best holiday party of the season. Wildflower revelers loved the delicious food, silent auction and especially dancing to the World Premiere Band! All proceeds from the Celebration support kids in need during the holidays and throughout the year ahead — including Wildflower’s campers.
“It was a wonderful night of laughter, sharing and community.”
Thank you to all who attended and supported Wildflower’s Spring Benefit featuring Celebrity Comedian Tom Cotter. Spending a joyful evening together in support of Wildflower’s deserving campers and families is always a highlight.
Cummings Foundation representative Mike Truesdale visited Wildflower’s Lexington office to announce that they received a Cummings Foundation $100K for 100 grant. Wildflower is one of 100 local nonprofits chosen from a total of 597 applicants during a review process.
The $100K for 100 program supports nonprofits that are based in and primarily serve Middlesex, Essex and Suffolk counties. Through this place-based initiative, Cummings Foundation aims to give back in the area where it owns commercial buildings, all of which are managed, at no cost to the Foundation, by its affiliate Cummings Properties.
A grant of this magnitude will be transformational for Wildflower. Founder Cyndi Jones said “this grant will be the catalyst for the expansion of our services, ensuring that more children in the Greater Boston area will be able to rediscover life after the loss of a parent through our unique program.”
“Running Boston is my lifelong goal,” said a Wildflower runner. We are so glad this year’s Wildflower Marathon Team crossed the finish line smiling and running strong. Many thanks to our runners, fans and donors.
