About The Program
Ready to Ignite Brighter Lives, Together? You've come to the right place! With your support, our clients can do more than just survive. They can thrive!
A small payroll deduction through Workday of $5, $10, or any amount, can make all the difference. Your support allows us to say yes when clients need that extra help. When you participate, rest assured that your donations will stay in the region you support. Therefore, your community will directly benefit from your generosity.
FAQ
- Funds stay in the region they are donated in, so your donations are going to your neighbors in need!
- Have you ever needed additional funding to support a client's continuum of care? Brightli Gives can help!
- Note: Needs must meet criteria and there must be local funds available!
- Your donations will ignite transformational change for the clients and families we serve. When there are gaps in funding, you can be a part of the solution.

Impact Stories
A New Bed
A new bed was more than a new bed to a Firefly client, as sleep is essential for good health and well-being.
Our staff said, "Maxine loves her bed. She says that it is beautiful and long enough that she doesn't hang over the edge. She couldn't believe that there are people nice enough that care to do things like that."
Autism Assessment
By providing funding to support an autism services assessment, a client was able to get an official diagnosis. This led to them being able to access needed resources and services, learn to better understand their unique strengths and challenges, and foster self-acceptance and self-advocacy.
Welcome Home Baskets
We were able to supply Welcome Home Baskets to survivors of domestic violence that are starting a new life and new home. The baskets were full of towels, pots and pans, cleaning supplies, dish sets, bed sheets, pillows, and kitchen necessities to help them get started.
Leaders In Training
In efforts to empower middle school students against drugs and violence, we were able to sponsor a Leaders in Training summit. By investing in prevention for our youth early on, we know it will help them make more informed decisions as they grow that can impact the trajectory of their life.
