Youth focused events held throughout the year

Other UFC Events

Holiday parties, youth retreats, film premieres and more.

UFC benefits from movie premieres, boutique shopping events, and a variety of other occasions by partnering with companies committed to giving back.

Events for our youth held throughout the year are essential to UFC’s philosophy of working with foster youth to develop familial and communal bonds among each other, UFC staff, and our community as a whole.

Past Events

College Readiness Program high school students enjoyed a unique educational experience when they attended the Black College Expo that brings Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs) and other colleges directly to students.
