Because of you 💙

Because of your dedication to creating opportunities for young people, children, youth, and families had the chance to experience the excitement, creativity, and community of Otafest 2026. Through interactive activities, inspiring performances, and opportunities to connect with others who share their passions, attendees were able to build confidence, make new friends, and create unforgettable memories in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

The event was a reminder of the power of community and the impact that one person, organization, or supporter can have when they invest in experiences that bring people together. Opportunities like this encourage self-expression, foster belonging, and create moments of joy that extend far beyond the event itself.

Thank you to the organizers of Otafest 2026 and everyone who helped make this incredible experience possible. Your generosity and commitment helped create meaningful moments that attendees will remember for years to come.

Otafest 2026, it's about more than just a festival. It's about connection, belonging, and creating experiences that inspire the next generation.

THANK YOU 💙

Today was not the day we had envisioned for our Kindness Classic.

After carefully monitoring the weather and assessing conditions on the course, we made the difficult decision to cancel our afternoon tee time. With heavy rain, damaged tents, and other activation items, wet equipment, and deteriorating conditions, we had to put the safety of our golfers, volunteers, sponsors, and staff first.

To our afternoon golfers, thank you for your understanding and support. We know many of you were looking forward to the day, and we are so sorry we couldn’t deliver the experience we had worked so hard to create.

To our sponsors and volunteers, thank you for standing with us through circumstances beyond anyone’s control. Your support means the world to us.

We are truly heartbroken. Our team, volunteers, and sponsors worked incredibly hard to create a fun, memorable, and meaningful experience for everyone.

Unfortunately, many of our fundraising activities were damaged by the weather and were unable to proceed as planned.

So, if you would still like to support Kids Up Front and help us recover some of the fundraising opportunities we lost today, our Silent Auction remains open until 4:00 PM. Every bid helps send local children and families to experiences that create connection, belonging, joy, and lasting memories.

Thank you for your kindness, your patience, and your unwavering support of Kids Up Front. Even on rainy days, this community continues to show up for kids, and we are incredibly grateful.

❤️ Bid now before 4:00 PM and help turn today’s disappointment into opportunities for children who need them most. There's also a tab at the top that gives you a change to ‘Donate & Make Dreams Come True’.
