What:
A fundraiser for the Elizabeth Peabody House

When:
Friday, June 12, 2026
6:30 PM to 9:00 PM

Our annual spring soirée is an elegant evening filled with food, music, and gratitude for our network of friends, allies, and partners. Please join us to learn more about our mission and support thriving children, thriving families, and thriving communities!

The evening will include good food, an open bar, live entertainment, and an exciting silent auction filled with premium prizes!.

This year’s theme focuses on Moments That Matter.
Moments that don’t make headlines.
Moments that rarely announce themselves.
Moments that, over time, change everything.
At Elizabeth Peabody House, those moments show up every day:

  • Eager students listening to a volunteer read from a favorite childhood story
  • A relieved caregiver reimagining their future after learning they can afford childcare
  • A hungry family sharing a meal after picking up groceries for the week
  • The amazement on a child’s face upon discovering a new interest, passion, or ability

These moments build connection.
These moments create stability.
These moments unlock new possibilities.
These are the Moments that Matter.

Note: You do not need to attend the event to participate in the auction. Bidding is now open and will remain open until Sunday, June 14, 2026. You can register for auction here.

This year, we are honored to recognize Senator Pat Jehlen for her decades of leadership and commitment to children and families.

Will you join us to celebrate Moments that Mattered? We hope to see you at this year’s soirée!
