Every sponsorship helps Chicago Austin Youth Travel Adventures (CAYTA) create life-changing opportunities for youth through educational programming, cultural exchange, leadership development, and international travel experiences—including our Study Abroad Program in Ghana. These experiences open minds, build confidence, and expose young people to possibilities they may have never imagined.

Your support helps us provide:

Cultural and educational programming for youth
Scholarships for international travel and study abroad experiences
Family-friendly community events that celebrate African heritage
Leadership and career development opportunities
Resources that empower the next generation of global leaders

On Saturday, September 12, 2026, thousands of community members will gather at Austin Town Hall Park to celebrate African heritage and African American culture with live entertainment, distinguished guests, educational exhibits, food vendors, and unforgettable cultural experiences.

Whether you give $25 or $2,500, you become part of a movement that is investing in young people, strengthening our community, and preserving a rich cultural legacy for generations to come.

Join us. Celebrate with us. Invest in our youth. Together, we can make an impact that reaches far beyond the festival.
