Pass It On
21st Annual Legacy Youth Mentoring GALA
For 21 years, Legacy Youth Mentoring has believed in the quiet power of showing up. Through consistent, friendship-based mentoring relationships, caring adults walk alongside students—passing on guidance, encouragement, and hope during some of the most formative years of their lives.
Our 2026 GALA theme, Pass It On, celebrates the shared exchange that mentoring creates. Mentors pass on guidance, encouragement, and friendship. Students pass back resilience, courage, joy, and perspective. Together, a legacy is carried forward—one relationship at a time.
Join us as we honor graduating seniors, celebrate dedicated mentors, and hear powerful stories of impact from students whose lives have been changed through mentoring.
