✨ MEET THE COMMITTEE- Brittany Riskovich ✨

Next up in our Meet the Committee series is Brittany Riskovich, Administrator at Royal View and another wonderful member of the team helping bring Light Up The Night to life!

Brittany loves being involved in the community, bringing people together, and supporting a great cause. So when the opportunity came to help plan an evening that does all three, she was excited to jump in!

💙 Why Light Up the Night?

For Brittany, it's all about community coming together to make a difference.

She loves that Light Up the Night gives people an opportunity to enjoy a fantastic evening while supporting local children and families through Angels of Action. She believes even the smallest acts of generosity can have a meaningful impact, and she's grateful to be part of a committee that puts so much heart into making it happen.

🥂 Behind the speakeasy door...

There's a whole lot more to Light Up the Night than what guests see when they arrive! From months of planning to countless little details, Brittany knows firsthand how much teamwork goes into creating a memorable evening.

And this year? She's especially excited about the fun surprises and interactive experiences planned throughout the night!

📸 One thing Brittany wants everyone to know? Come dressed to impress! With some fabulous photo opportunities planned for our 1920s speakeasy, you'll definitely want to look the part and capture a few memories along the way. Break out the fringe, feathers, fedoras, and all that Gatsby-era glam!

⚾ When she's not planning a gala...

You'll find Brittany spending time with her family, enjoying family trips, or sneaking in a round of golf whenever she can. She's also a HUGE Detroit sports fan, especially when it comes to cheering on the Tigers and Lions! 🏈

🎶 And something you might not know...

Brittany LOVES live music! Some of her favorite summer nights are spent outdoors at concerts, soaking up the music and making memories. Add in her love of cooking, golfing, sporting events, and traveling with family, and it's safe to say she knows how to make the most of her free time!

We're so grateful to have Brittany's enthusiasm, community spirit, and creativity on our Light Up the Night Committee. It's people like her, willing to give their time and talents, who help turn a fun night out into something so much bigger for the children and families we serve. 💙

Stay tuned as we introduce you to more of the amazing people behind Light Up The Night: A Night at the Speakeasy! 🥂✨

🎷 Cue the jazz and turn up the spotlight, we have a Shine Sponsor to celebrate!

Please help us give a roaring round of applause to Sweeney Holbeck Edison Insurance Agency for supporting Light Up the Night. 👏✨

When a business chooses to sponsor this event, they’re choosing to stand alongside Angels of Action and the children and families we serve. They’re helping us continue the work that happens week after week; providing food, essential items, educational resources, and compassionate support to our neighbors.

That’s what makes Light Up the Night so special. Beneath all the sparkle and celebration is a community coming together around one powerful belief: every child deserves to thrive.

Thank you, Sweeney Holbeck Edison Insurance Agency, for helping our mission shine brighter. Your generosity is love in action, and we are incredibly grateful to have you in our corner. 💙

🏮 BE THEIR BEAM OF HOPE. 💙

Behind all the glitz, glamour, and speakeasy fun of Light Up the Night is a mission that matters deeply: making sure local children have the food they need to thrive.

For $100, you can sponsor a personalized Beam of Hope lantern that will shine at Century 21 White House Realty’s Light Up the Night Gala.

But your impact doesn’t stop when the lights go out.

Your donation helps Angels of Action continue fighting childhood hunger by providing food to local children throughout the school year. Through Backpack Blessings, children receive nutritious food to take home for the weekend—packed and provided with love, dignity, and care. 💙

That’s what your lantern represents.

✨ A child feeling cared for.
✨ A weekend with food to eat.
✨ A community showing up for its kids.
✨ Hope for a brighter tomorrow.

This speakeasy may take us back in time, but together, we’re helping local children move toward a brighter future.

🏮 Sponsor a Beam of Hope for $100 and let your light make an impact long after the gala is over.

🥂 Your next great night out is calling…

Light Up the Night is back, and this year we’re taking you straight into the glamour and excitement of a 1920s Speakeasy. 🤫✨

Picture a night filled with amazing food, specialty drinks, live entertainment, exciting auctions, and plenty of reasons to hit the dance floor, all with your favorite people by your side. 🎷💃

But the best part of the night isn’t what’s on the menu or what you might win at the auction.

It’s knowing that while we’re having an incredible time together, we’re also raising money to support Angels of Action and the local kids and families we serve. 💙

A great night. A great cause. And even better company.

Sounds like a pretty perfect night to us. Who are you bringing? 🥂

🥂 Raise a glass! We have a Shimmer Sponsor to celebrate!

We’re thrilled to recognize Arrow Strategies Strategies for supporting Light Up the Night as a Shimmer Sponsor. Around here, we know that when local businesses and community members come together, incredible things can happen for our kids.

Their sponsorship helps make Light Up the Night possible while supporting the bigger reason behind the celebration: ensuring children and families in our community have access to food, essential needs, resources, and plenty of love along the way.

Every sponsorship becomes part of something greater. It helps us continue showing children that their community sees them, values them, and is ready to stand beside them.

Thank you, Arrow Strategies, for putting generosity in the spotlight and helping us create brighter tomorrows for local kids. ✨💙

✨ MEET THE COMMITTEE: Shavon Jane ✨

Next up in our Meet the Committee series is Shavon Jane,Event Coordinator & Donor Relations Specialist at Angels of Action, and if there’s an event happening at Angels, there’s a pretty good chance Shavon has her hands in it! 😄

But Shavon’s story actually started as a volunteer for Angels of Action. She quickly fell in love with the organization, the people, and most importantly, the mission. Her love of events and bringing people together made Light Up the Night a pretty natural fit.

💙 Why Light Up the Night?

For Shavon, it’s about creating something fun that also has a much bigger purpose.

Kids are one of the things she’s most passionate about, and she believes every child deserves to have people in their corner. No child should have to worry about whether there will be enough food or whether their family can afford the things they need.

She loves knowing that the work Angels does, and the money raised through Light Up the Night, stays right here, helping children and families in our own community.

🥂 Behind the speakeasy door...

As one of the people heavily involved in planning the event, Shavon knows just how much happens before guests ever walk through those doors!

This year, she’s especially excited for everyone to experience the full 1920s speakeasy vibe. From the atmosphere and entertainment to all the little surprises planned throughout the evening, she wants guests to have an amazing night and leave knowing their fun had a purpose.

🏃‍♀️ When she’s not planning Light Up the Night...

Shavon stays just a little busy. In addition to her work at Angels, she’s a Realtor and serves on the Big Rapids Public Schools Board of Education.

And then there are her approximately 97 hobbies. 😂

Running. Pickleball. Golf. Hiking. Kayaking. Concerts. Pretty much anything that gets her outside and moving. And according to Shavon herself, she probably plays way too much pickleball.

From starting as a volunteer to now helping lead our events and build relationships with the people who support our mission, Shavon brings a whole lot of energy and heart to Angels, and we’re pretty lucky to have her helping make A Night at the Speakeasy one to remember. 💙

Stay tuned as we introduce you to more of the people behind Light Up the Night! 🥂✨

🚪 Knock twice. Give the password. Come on in.

Tonight’s password? GENEROSITY. ✨

And Stratz Heating & Cooling, Inc certainly knows it! We’re excited to recognize them as a Shine Sponsor of Light Up The Night.

Their partnership helps us create a spectacular evening, but the real magic happens after the party is over. Sponsorship dollars help Angels of Action continue providing food, essential needs, and resources for children and families throughout Mecosta and Osceola Counties.

It’s neighbors helping neighbors. Businesses investing in their community. And children being reminded that there is a whole village standing behind them.
