We are beyond excited to announce the return of our flagship community event: the 30 Day Spark!
Last year, we launched this initiative to champion the diverse passions of our community. This year, we are taking that energy to the next level. Our 2026 theme is a reminder of our collective power: Together We Spark. Together We Thrive.
What is the 30 Day Spark?
The 30 Day Spark is a “choose-your-own-adventure” fundraising campaign. For 30 days, you commit to a challenge that excites you—whether it’s daily meditation, training for a 5K, finishing an art project, or learning a new skill. As you push yourself and share your progress, your friends and family support your journey by donating to the CLOVES Syndrome Community (CSC).
Why Your Spark Matters
Our goal for 2026 is to raise $20,000. These funds are the lifeline for our community’s most vital programs. When you fundraise, you aren’t just completing a personal goal; you are fueling CSC’s mission to improve the lives of those with CLOVES Syndrome:
- Together We Spark Connection: Your efforts fund programs like Betsy’s Camp & Retreat, our annual retreat where people with CLOVES and their families can connect, share experiences, and relax in beautiful New Hampshire.
- Together We Spark Awareness: You help us print and distribute our children’s books, Four Leaf Cloves and Incredible You, to kids, classrooms, and libraries. This drives awareness and helps kids with CLOVES Syndrome navigate stigma with confidence.
- Together We Spark Progress: You power our collaboration with researchers and pharmaceutical partners, ensuring the patient voice is at the center of clinical trial designs and treatment development.
