The Bright Light Foundation, an all volunteer
organization, was founded in 2003 to provide financial
assistance to families in the oil field industry who have
experienced a catastrophic illness. Being an all volunteer
organization allows the foundation to distribute
essentially all funds, net of actual event expenses, to
families in need. The foundation’s first recipient, Tammy
Bright, was a diabetic and had to deal with many
complications related to the illness, including heart
damage, kidney failure and blindness. Tammy, in name
and in spirit, provided the inspiration for the
organization’s name.
On May 15, 2006, Tammy passed away due to
complications from diabetes. Tammy was
an inspiration to us all and so our mission continues to
assist those in need in the oil field industry in her name.
Families of those working in the oil field industry who
are incurring extensive medical expenses associated with
a catastrophic illness can apply to the Foundation for
financial support. Annually, the foundation selects one
or more recipients from submitted applications.
Applications can be found on the foundation’s web site.

None of us “expect” to experience a catastrophic illness,
but in reality they strike often and can quickly deplete the
financial resources of many families. We invite
individuals and companies to support our effort through
direct contributions or participation in our annual
dinner/auction and golf tournament. Merchants who
would like to support the foundation can additionally do
so through the donation of items for the annual auction.
We express our sincere thanks to all who have supported
us to date. To those of you who are just now learning of
the mission of the foundation, we ask your serious
consideration in support of our efforts. We cannot reach
all in need, but together we have, and will continue to
provide assistance to those we can.
