Many young adults face barriers that make it harder to build a stable future. Challenges like poverty, addiction, and limited opportunities can affect education, employment, and personal growth. With the right support, young people can gain the skills and confidence they need to succeed.
Community Uplift Partnership (CUP) helps young adults overcome these challenges through mentorship, education, job training, and support programs. Their goal is to help every young person build a brighter future and reach their full potential. To continue this important work, they are hosting a special fundraising event.
The CUP Gala 2026: Play It Forward! will take place on September 19, 2026. Guests will enjoy dinner, drinks, live entertainment, and inspiring stories from CUP graduates while celebrating the impact of the organization’s programs. This event helps fund free mentorship, job training, student stipends, and support services for young adults. Every ticket helps provide opportunities that can change lives and create brighter futures.
Reserve your seat here to support young adults and help create opportunities for the next generation.
