Honoring Our Community Champions

United in Purpose is an evening of celebration honoring the individuals, youth leaders, and organizations whose leadership and service strengthen Santa Cruz County.

Set among the redwoods, the night begins with a scenic train ride, followed by dinner with hosted beer and wine, and an awards celebration highlighting inspiring stories of community, resilience, and youth leadership. Together, we gather to recognize the people who show up for our community and help shape a stronger future.
