Special Initiative: Summer Under the Stars 2027
Summer Under the Stars is an exciting teen initiative offered during preferred later hours to address summer loneliness and give youth a safe, engaging space to meet peers. It takes a complete team to make this a success!
The Experience
We are bringing together a vibrant mix of activities and resources, including:
Entertainment & Games: Live music, creative showcases, and interactive group challenges.
Food & Local Vendors: Delicious food trucks, local creators, and community booths.
Youth Resources: Vital mental wellness support and career development networks.
It Takes a Team
From the first tent pole to the final clean-up, our dedicated crew handles everything in between to ensure a secure, world-class experience. Our team manages:
Set-Up & Tear-Down: Seamless logistics and operations.
Safety & Security: Vetted, professional teams monitoring the space.
Vendor & Activity Support: Guiding games and hosting youth with excellence.
No teenager should feel isolated this summer. Join us as a guest, a volunteer, or a partner to help stoke the spark!
Be the Difference. Become a Mentor.
Isolation is heavy, but a supportive community is unshakeable. At Stoke the Spark Collective, we are launching 6- to 8-week small-group youth cohorts designed to foster resilience, connection, and mental wellness. We need vetted, passionate adult mentors to show up, listen, and help local youth realize their spark matters. You don’t need to be perfect; you just need to be present.
Building Community, One Connection at a Time.
No one should have to walk through life alone. At Stoke the Spark Collective, we host free, local community events designed to bring neighbors, youth, and families together in Snohomish County. From seasonal gatherings to casual meetups, our events create safe, joyful spaces to build the supportive ecosystem our youth need to thrive. Come exactly as you are—you belong here.
Service Equals Purpose: Partnering for Impact
We believe that true purpose is found in serving others. Stoke the Spark Collective collaborates with local organizations and shelters to bring community, hope, and connection directly to youth facing hardship. By anchoring our volunteer services in these vital spaces, we stoke the spark of resilience where it is needed most. Partner with us to build a bridge of support for every young person in our community.
Fuel the Mission: Become a Fundraising Volunteer
To keep our youth cohorts, shelter programs, community events, and Summer Under the Stars events 100% free, we rely on a dedicated ecosystem of supporters. We need passionate volunteers to help us fuel the mission behind the scenes! Whether you love planning charity events, writing grant proposals, connecting with local business sponsors, or setting up crowdfunding campaigns like Givebutter, your skills can create a lasting impact. Help us ensure financial barriers never stand in the way of a young person finding connection.
