Paint The Town Platinum

The team at Thrive Community Services warmly invites you to Paint the Town Platinum, our special gala celebrating 70 years of supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

This year’s event will embrace a more formal gala-inspired theme, truly honoring the dedication, commitment, and collective involvement it has taken to reach this remarkable Platinum 70th anniversary milestone. It is an opportunity to reflect on our shared history, celebrate those who have helped shape our journey, and look ahead with pride and purpose.

We’d love for you to join us for this joyful evening of connection, celebration, and shared purpose—where together we can continue making a positive difference in our community.

Please save the date for Saturday, April 25, 2026, at The Vault. The evening will include an engaging live auction, a fun cash raffle, lively games, and a delicious dinner. To make bidding even more convenient and enjoyable, our silent auction will be hosted online, giving you the chance to participate throughout the weekend from wherever you are.

If you’d like to contribute, we’re happily collecting donations for both the live and silent auctions. Every gift, no matter the size, is truly appreciated and helps bring our community together for a great cause. In past years, popular live auction items have included cozy overnight hotel stays, relaxing weekend getaways, tickets to exciting professional sporting events, and fun recreational equipment. Silent auction favorites often feature beautifully assembled gift baskets, gift cards to wonderful local businesses and restaurants, or other special treasures.

The funds raised will help us build a peaceful recreation space featuring a gentle walking path, comfortable benches, engaging sensory elements, and soothing swings. This welcoming area will provide opportunities to connect with nature, nurture wellbeing, and ease everyday stresses for those we serve.

We are so thankful to be part of a community that shares our commitment to inclusion and kindness. Your support over the years has touched so many lives, and we truly appreciate every bit of it.

If you’re interested in donating, learning about sponsorship opportunities, or simply hearing more, we’d be delighted to hear from you.
