Keynote Speaker
Steve Phipps
President, Wayfind Marketing
Certified “They Ask, You Answer” Coach
Steve’s connection to Spreading Sunshine is more than professional—it’s personal. After his family experienced the care and support of our Year of Sunshine program, he witnessed firsthand the profound impact our organization has on families facing difficult times. Since 2017, Steve has been a dedicated donor and volunteer, consistently contributing his time and resources to support Spreading Sunshine.
With over 25 years of marketing expertise, Steve leads Wayfind Marketing with a passion for helping businesses grow without the usual headaches.
When a child faces serious illness or special needs, it doesn’t just impact them –
It impacts the whole family.
Did you know that thousands of Mid-South families are caring for children with life-limiting illnesses? Between treatments, constant health challenges, and financial burdens, finding a spare moment can seem impossible. Plus, the absence of familiar community support only adds to the weight of their situation.
A special thanks to our Title Sponsor:
Since 2018, Allen has been the Owner/Operator of Chick-fil-A at The Shoppes at Bartlett in Bartlett, Tennessee. He recently opened the Austin Peay store. Under his guidance, his team has consistently won Chick-fil-A awards for food safety and outstanding performance.
Allen believes in making a positive impact where he lives and works. Since 2019, his location has provided financial support and dinner that we serve at Le Bonheur hospital.
“Spreading Sunshine doesn’t just come in, provide a meal, and then move on to the next family. They are dedicated to these families and walk with them in their journey from beginning to end.”
“Supporting Spreading Sunshine was a natural choice for us after our personal experience with our child at Le Bonheur. We saw firsthand how many families need love, support, and a sense of community! Spreading Sunshine meeting those needs through spiritual, practical, and emotional care resonated deeply with us.”
