Pot of Gold Luncheon

On April 19th, 2013, nearly 500 guests gathered at the Hilton Anatole for Rainbow Days' 16th Annual Pot of Gold Luncheon, which raised $189,134 in support of Rainbow Days programs and services. Rainbow Days' positive and life-changing impact was made evident from the beginning when children's entertainer, Eddie Coker, and the Children of Rainbow Days got everyone on their feet and dancing to Eddie's song "Interaction." After this electrifying performance, guests enjoyed lunch while listening to remarks by this year's Honorary Chair Sheryl Adkins-Green, Chief Marketing Officer at Mary Kay Inc., Rainbow Days' Founder and CEO Cathey Brown, and Jessica Thorne of Taber Okon Thorne & Carr and past Board President of Rainbow Days who spoke on behalf of all the Campaign Donors.

Rainbow Days wishes to express gratitude to this year's media sponsors, Grand Luxe and Park Cities News, our major sponsors (click here for a list of 2013 Sponsors), our silent auction donors, and the luncheon co-chairs, Carriea Flowers and Dr. Michele Williams, who worked tirelessly alongside a committed team, who were instrumental in making this lunch not only possible, but the best yet!

The words spoken by Elizabeth, a Rainbow Days participant and interviewee at the luncheon, after the conclusion of the luncheon summarizes why we do what we do, "Thank you for all of your hard work on the luncheon. It shows how much everyone cares and supports all of us kids. Rainbow Days helped me during a difficult time. I love Rainbow Days because everyone here really cares about me."

Kids' University
Conducted in partnership with a local university or college, this academic camp involves the children in a variety of interactive learning experiences.  Kids' University promotes the merits of higher education, develops social competency and builds self- esteem while reinforcing the importance of continuing their education.

Camp Bravo!
This is a unique week long performing arts day camp during which homeless children learn songs, dances and speaking lines and create props, costumes and scenery for an original production. The experience culminates in a musical production performed for an audience of family, friends and supporters.

Outdoor Adventure Camp
This traditional recreational day camp experience focuses on skills development and team building activities.  Besides having fun swimming, riding horses, and making crafts, the children learn and practice skills, especially communication, cooperation, goal-setting, problem-solving, and teamwork under the guidance of skilled and caring adults.

Back-to-School Celebration
School-age children receive backpacks filled with new grade appropriate school supplies and school uniforms while celebrating at a back-to-school party.

Saturday with Santa
Every year Rainbow Days hosts a holiday party for the homeless children and families that we serve. This event not only gives families a chance to celebrate together but also the opportunity to have some fun, receive a stocking stuffed with goodies and visit with Santa!
