Seattle nearly lost its annual fireworks show after a corporate sponsor couldn't be found. But at the last minute, a grassroots fundraiser by residents and local business chipped in and saved the show.

All this week on Evening Magazine, we'll be thanking a few of the many people who put up their own money to assure we all see fireworks on July 4.

You can watch the result of Bill's efforts this Sunday night as KING 5 presents "The Family Fourth at Lake Union" starting at 10 p.m.
