The SPARKles: Together,
They Shine.........................1
weSPARK has always focused on ways to
make a real, discernible difference in the lives
of those who have been affected by cancer.
Thanks to the generous contributions from
all of our supporters, 2014 was a fantastic
year of expansions and improvements. We
are offering more support services, including
those in key areas of need like Spanishlanguage support groups, grief groups, and
programs for kids and teens. We are working
tirelessly to improve our online presence by
updating our website and offering online
programming so those who are unable to
make it to the weSPARK offices can still be
part of our community. And if you’ve driven
by our offices recently, you may have noticed
that our front entrance got a bit of a facelift!
We are thrilled to share all of our new & improved
services with you into 2015 and beyond. Thank
you for making it all possible!

vital services in the community. Three-quarters of our
expenses went directly to programs in 2014, and we are
committed to increasing that percentage to 85%. This
focus on programming ensures that we can provide as
many opportunities as possible for those affected by
cancer to enrich their minds, bodies, and spirits.

ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES
weSPARK is the beneficiary of a few wonderful grants,
and our fabulous and fun events make up a minor
portion of our income, but, as you can see, weSPARK
really would not be where we are today without the
generous ongoing support of our donors. It’s because
of you that our doors are open and we served over
2,000 adults and children who needed us in 2014.
Thanks to your donations, weSPARK can expand, grow,
and thrive. We can continue to offer a diverse range
of services that are vital to help those impacted by
cancer during one of the most difficult, life-altering
experiences anyone can go through. weSPARK is there
for those who need us, but YOU, our supporters, are
there for weSPARK. Thank you!
