This event is made possible through the dedication and partnership of two extraordinary organizations who believe — as we do — that community investment changes lives.

4th Quarter Performance
501(c)(3) Nonprofit  ·  Presenting Partner

4th Quarter Performance brings an elite mindset to youth development — pushing students to discover what they're capable of when they commit to finishing strong. Their partnership fuels the physical and mental performance components of our programs, helping students build resilience, discipline, and the drive to go the distance. Through dedicated community outreach and volunteer service, 4th Quarter Performance actively invests in the neighborhoods they serve — showing up not just as a program, but as a presence that uplifts the entire community.

Vine & Valor

Vine & Valor is rooted in community connection and the power of building something meaningful together. Their commitment to our mission and their introduction of EmpowerUS to key networking opportunities — including a Yelp feature spotlight — has helped amplify our reach and grow our network of supporters, donors, and volunteers.
