Join us for A Love Letter to Riley’s Way as we celebrate 10 years of investing in and supporting the next generation of kind leaders.

We could not be prouder of the community of changemakers that Riley’s Way has grown into. Over the past decade, we’ve invested in more than 3,500 young people across the country with over $4 million in grants and programming – and we’re just getting started. These young changemakers have grown into leaders in business, nonprofit, arts, education, STEM, public service, and their communities. Most importantly, they lead with kindness, empathy, compassion, and respect.

Meet Riley’s Way young changemakers, be inspired, and have lots of fun. There will be delicious food, drinks, entertainment, and a fabulous silent auction.

Sponsors are invited to support A Love Letter to Riley’s Way and our Call For Kindness Fellowship program, which provides funding and leadership development training to youth-led projects that are rooted in kindness and strengthening communities.

Email Lauren Shenkman, Director of Partnerships and Programs, (lshenkman@rileysandler.org) for sponsorship opportunities or to join our host committee.
