We’re looking forward to seeing you on May 14, 2026 at ilani’s Cowlitz Gathering Room for Educational Opportunities for Children & Families’ (EOCF) largest in-person event of the year, Color Their Worlds: Gala & Auction.
This highly anticipated event will bring together success stories and testimonials from teachers and guardians, offering our guests insight into how EOCF creates a lasting impact in the communities we serve. As we paint you the picture of how Early Childhood Education sustains families for generations, we will open the event to our generous donors to fundraise, creating opportunities for our children and families as we continue to “Color Their Worlds” with stable resources, broad access to education, family support services, and reliable childcare.
At the event, guests can expect engaging entertainment, delicious food, locally-crafted beverages — and most importantly, our incredible and valuable community supporters in attendance! From paddle raises and a dessert dash, to live auction items and children’s art auction, attendees are sure to have a memorable experience in support of one of the leading social service organizations in Southwest Washington.
