SUMMER NIGHTS
August 3rd, 2008

Thank you to everyone who helped make our August 3rd Summer Nights such a success!

Summer Nights offers an evening of can’t-miss entertainment to benefit promising but disadvantaged students. In 2008, Summer Nights started with an All In Poker Tournament in the afternoon. The evening built to a party extravaganza that rocked the house, with games and incredible prizes, live music and dancing, mystics, and a live and silent auction.

Summer Nights is produced by the Bright Future Committee, the same team that brought you Summer Splash for many years, entertaining thousands of guests and raising over $650K for the Fulfillment Fund’s scholarship program to help deserving teens realize their college dreams.

Media and Talent Support
Bright Future events have garnered significant press coverage, and attracted a long list of celebrities, including honorary co-chairs Cuba Gooding Jr., Jessica Biel, Timothy Daly, and Carrie-Ann Moss. This year’s event will include even more star power.

Corporate and Private Sponsorships
The Bright Future committee welcomes companies to step up and become a top sponsor of Summer Nights. Make a difference for our youth and for our future. Almost all event costs are donated, including cuisine and cocktails from the finest LA restaurants, and the event venue, meaning more than 80% of your sponsorship dollars will directly support scholarships. Be the ALL IN title sponsor for $25K, or there are many sponsorship levels to choose from. A complete sponsorship menu is available. 

Thank you to all of our generous volunteers,  especially the Bright Future Committee members.

Congratulations to the 2008 graduating class of Bright Future scholarship recipients: Anthony Clark, USC; Diamond James, Northwestern; and Anna Yasinskaya, UC Berkeley!
