raysforrare Sunshine Gala was truly the event of the season. ✨ With its Luxury Luau as the raysforrare_sunshinegala theme, the night was filled with beauty, joy, and a powerful sense of purpose. We were honored to be part of it, surrounded by friends and community members all gathered to support such a meaningful cause. With the chateaudesfleursofficial as the gorgeous venue. 

Rays for Rare is an Idaho nonprofit dedicated to uplifting families raising medically fragile children. These children face unique challenges every day, often relying on specialized caregivers, therapies, and high tech medical equipment just to live. Right here in our own community there are more than 5,000 medically fragile children, and the need for support continues to grow.

At the heart of this mission is Megan Schomer, the founder and President-CEO of Rays for Rare. After the loss of her son Corwyn, she turned her grief into purpose, creating a lifeline for families who often feel unseen and overwhelmed. Watching her lead with such heart is inspiring, and we were honored to join her at the founder’s table and celebrate the impact she has made.

The gala was inspiring, not just because of the beauty of the evening, but because of the generosity, advocacy, and hope it represented. Nights like this remind us how powerful it is when a community comes together around love and resilience. 💛🌺
