Be the Spark is a movement started by The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation to inspire each other to take action and make our community a more positive, caring place to live. Together, we have the power to build a community that we are proud to be a part of.
As a rallying point for the movement, the Community Foundation and our partners are bringing Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Desmond Tutu to the Tacoma Dome on May 13, 2011 as one of his last U.S. public appearances. Desmond Tutu stands as an example of how one person’s actions have a dramatic influence on the entire community and will spark each of us to take action toward building a safe, healthy and productive future for our community and our youth.
