Spectrum360 and COVID-19
We Need Your Help

Out of great caution and for your safety, Spectrum360 has canceled all in-person fundraising events for 2020. These events raise over $250,000 annually to support the high quality programs and services we offer for students, adults and families.

Without events such as the Annual Fore the Kids Golf Outing and our Hall of Fame dinner, Spectrum360 is experiencing budget gaps which cannot be filled without the generosity of grants and donations.
