Eva Sophia Project

💜🏈 SKOL! The Eva Sophia Project is at U.S. Bank Stadium! 🏈💜

Our crew is having an amazing day cheering on the Minnesota Vikings! From exploring the stadium to taking in all the excitement of game day, there are plenty of smiles all around.

This is what ESP programming is all about — friendship, community, new experiences, and belonging.

We’re making memories, having fun, and cheering loud together!

This is community. This is belonging. This is the Eva Sophia Project. 💜

We are incredibly grateful to Curtis Grimes for once again being part of the Eva Sophia Project Benefit Concert & Auction. 💜

Curtis has become more than an amazing performer—he's a friend who continues to support our mission of creating opportunities, friendships, and belonging for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Thank you for sharing your music, your time, and your heart with our community. We can't wait to welcome you back to Minnesota!

Please join us in thanking Curtis for helping make this year's benefit such a memorable evening. 🎶💜

What an incredible day. ❤️

Our hearts are full.

To everyone who attended, volunteered, sponsored, donated, bid in the auction, performed, shared a post, or simply believed in our mission—thank you for helping make Better Together 2026 such a special day.

There were smiles, laughter, music, new friendships, and so many moments that reminded us why the Eva Sophia Project exists.

We're still catching our breath and sorting through hundreds of photos and videos, but we couldn't wait to say...thank you.

Over the next several days, we'll be sharing highlights from the event, celebrating our amazing volunteers, sponsors, artists, and everyone who helped make this day possible.

For now, enjoy a few of our favorite moments. 💙
