2026 Impact Award
About this Event
More than just a gathering, it’s a space designed to spark meaningful conversations and create pathways for involvement, whether through volunteering, board service, or community partnerships. Through these connections we all come together to strengthen organization's work of expanding access for youth in athletics, education, and opportunities.
In the spirit of collective action, each year, we honor one nonprofit with the Impact Award, celebrating the remarkable ways they collaborate with their community to expand access to youth sports, education, and opportunities.
This year’s event will welcome 200 guests for an informal cocktail party with light bites, drinks, and plenty of opportunities to connect. Guests will have the chance to meet our 2026-2027 grant partners, learn about their missions, and discover how they can get involved. At 5:45 PM, we’ll gather for a short program to celebrate the 2026 Impact Award and announce the 2026 Bud Award recipient.

Come Ready to Connect
This celebration is about more than recognition—it’s about building relationships. We invite individuals to come ready to connect, listen, and respond to the real needs of local nonprofits. Whether it’s sharing your skills, talents, or time, you’ll have the chance to make a meaningful impact.
Nonprofits, come ready to ask! This is your opportunity to share the most pressing needs of your organization and invite support. Whether you’re seeking marketing expertise, new volunteers, board members, or simply more community awareness, let the room know how others can step in to help.
Together, we can turn conversations into action and strengthen the network of support that expands access for youth.
