Ways to get involved

Turn Your Passion into Action

Private Events

Benita Thomas along with two friends (Dee, & Sonja) of Seattle, WA would celebrate their birthdays by having an annual Garden Party aka The Big Hat Affaire. Through out the years they have decided to support Special Moments cause by turning this event into a private fund raiser by asking their guest to donate to Special Moments in lieu of gifts. Through this kind act, they helped raise funds to support our program such as ‘ A Christmas to Remember.’ and others.

Casual Friday

For staff in the Tukwila office of N.C Machinery, casual Friday is more than a fashion statement – it’s an opportunity to change lives in their community. N.C Machinery employees who choose to wear jeans on Fridays pay five dollars into the Denim Days fund. Each month, a local charity is selected from employee suggestions to receive the fund.

Party for a Cause

Gifts to Special Moments can be made by check, credit card or stock. You may also make a gift by texting “Give2-Moments” to 77948. Make checks payable to Special Moments and mail to:
