The Sneaker Ball Fundraising Gala is the signature event of Improve Your Tomorrow, Inc. (IYT), a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing college access and success for young men of color. This Black Tie & Sneakers affair is an inspiring night to connect with community leaders and change-makers, discover the incredible impact of IYT, and (of course), have fun!

Join leaders and decision-makers in business, education, government, and philanthropy as we celebrate impact, and help ensure support for the next generation of change-makers.

This year's Sneaker Ball theme: Resilience.

This year’s Sneaker Ball is not just a celebration—it’s a call to action. We invite the IYT community to stand with us, invest in resilience, and help ensure that every young man we serve continues to have the mentorship, guidance, and opportunities they deserve. Together, we can transform resilience into results.
