2011′s Captain Planet Foundation Benefit Gala was an enormous success. We raised over $855,000 for our children and the environment. The money raised will help fund Captain Planet Foundation’s mission, to support hands-on environmental projects which are designed to encourage innovative, game-changing initiatives that will inspire and empower the next generation of environmental stewards.

The 36th annual Fred Hutch Holiday Gala last week found those at the black-tie gala in a giving mood. The event raised a whopping $6.1 million for research and patient family programs at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.

BLYN — The Gateway, still a new fundraiser, has outdone itself.
The dinner and auction in 7 Cedars Casino’s Club Seven lounge Saturday night, a benefit for both the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula and the Promise of Hope Foundation, raised $10,500 for each.
“I am still on cloud nine,” Gateway organizer Barbara Brown said Monday.
“It was a wonderful evening,” that began with champagne and peaked with a total of $21,000 raised.
That’s 31 percent more than last year’s $16,000, though this was only the second annual event.
With 60 guests, The Gateway was at capacity,...
