Did you know that next year, 2027, the BRIGHT run will be 20 years old? 🥰

One of the ways we hope to commemorate this milestone is with a fundraising cookbook, created with contributions from all our BRIGHT friends. 👩‍🍳🍳

We’re in the planning stage and we’re looking for people to be on the Cookbook Committee.
