MISSION: Raising awareness of mental health and addiction disorders and erasing the stigma of both. Sunshine from Darkness raises funds for brain research and funds local charities that provide direct services in the Sarasota community. 

Sunshine from Darkness is dedicated to striking out the stigma of mental illness

Sunshine from Darkness is a nonprofit, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to raising funds for mental health research and local charities that provide mental health and addiction disorder services in the Sarasota community.

Founded as a subsidiary of the Lee and Bob Peterson Foundation, Sunshine from Darkness hosts two events each year: the Journey to Wellness Symposium and Inspiring Hope Dinner. These events serve educational and fundraising purposes by providing local community professionals and philanthropists the opportunity to engage with the broader mental health community.
