Fox Valley Memory Project Fundraiser Event

Published On

Last night, our Community Liaison had the privilege of attending the Living Life 2025 fundraiser hosted by the Fox Valley Memory Project. This incredible organization continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our neighbors by offering essential programs and services for individuals experiencing memory loss and dementia—as well as their families and caregivers.

Among their many impactful initiatives are Mindworks, Memory Cafés, Lunch Bunch, social outings, educational workshops, and support groups. These programs foster vital social connections that truly enhance the quality of life for those affected.

Carrie Esselman, the incoming Executive Director of FVMP, shared her passionate vision during the event. Her dedication to this mission and the people it supports was deeply moving and inspiring. She reminded us all why this event was not just a fundraiser—it was a night of tangible impact.

At BrightStar Care, we are proud to stand alongside the Fox Valley Memory Project, offering caregiver support to individuals and families navigating the challenges of dementia and memory loss in our community.
