Aspen Inspire Luncheon 2025

On June 25th  we hosted our inaugural Aspen Inspire Luncheon — an afternoon devoted to hope, connection, and lasting change.

Thanks to the generosity of the 90 guests who attended, we raised over $85,000 to fund vital initiatives: expanding educational opportunities, improving health services, and providing water filters and smoke-free stoves to families in Guatemala who need them most.

The luncheon featured an engaging panel discussion with speakers Kimberly Reilly, Nancy Hairston, and Susan Salka, moderated by Dodee Crocket. These leaders shared how service and purpose have shaped their lives and careers, highlighting the powerful ripple effect that begins when individuals commit to making a difference.

Guests were also moved by stories from keynote speaker Cindy Engles, who traveled to Guatemala with Team Gratitude and described the resilience of the communities she encountered, as well as the deep sense of connection that comes from working together toward a common goal.

The Aspen Inspire Luncheon served as a powerful reminder of what’s possible when people unite, believing in something greater than themselves.
