Local Founder Matt Worthington Sits Down For a Discussion About ‘Best Day Ever’ On Austin’s Newest Talk Show

Matt Worthington, the founder of Best Day Ever Foundation drops in for a discussion on local television show “Austin Actually”, with producer and host Daryl K. Jones.

Best Day Ever Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is “to showcase the power of love, human connection, and the belief that every person deserves to feel truly valued.” Inspired by the idea that love is the universal language, the nonprofit aims to bring unforgettable moments of joy to those who deserve it most, according to their website.

Best Day Ever Foundation provides one-of-a-kind experiences for those going through some form of hardship. People nominate friends, neighbors, co-workers or family members who are going through a hard season, whether that’s illness, loss or some other life challenge. Then, the foundation plans a “Best Day Ever” which reflects the recipient's interest, and fulfills some of their wants and their needs at the time.

"Our mission is built on three fundamental pillars that guide everything we do", Matt explains. "Each pillar represents a core way we create lasting impact in communities here in Austin, and nationwide. We foster connections between people, businesses and organizations to create a network of support that extends far beyond individual experiences."

During the interview, Matt Worthington discussed his inspiration for starting the foundation, how people can get involved, and the nomination and selection process. Worthington also discussed his desire to have an impact through his organization in other states, and expressed his willingness to partner with other organizations and corporations to help spread Best Day Ever across the nation, and beyond.

Matt Worthington discussed his excitement regarding the organization's first annual gala to be held on December 12th at the Winfield Inn in Kyle, Texas. The Best Day Ever gala will feature Kristin Currie from KXAN (as the Master of Ceremonies), dinner, dancing, open bar, live entertainment, a silent auction and a few other surprises for the guests.

Currently, the organization is looking for business sponsors to highlight and support their mission, as well as donations for their silent auction. Anyone who is interested in donating may contact Matt directly at matt@bestdayever.info
