Upcoming Events

5th Annual Elizabeth Frankel Waymakers
Mileage Challenge

This year, in commemoration of the Young Center’s 20th anniversary, we’re honoring their journey by taking our own steps. Join us as we walk, run, or roll 20,000 miles throughout the month of September in solidarity with the children who journey to the United States in search of safety, dignity, and community. 

Early Bird Registration Starts June 20th!

Sign up by Friday August 15th to lock in early bird pricing! Every child we serve has a story to tell. Every step you take will help us raise money to help us uplift their story and ensure that no child ever walks alone again.
