Together for Youth’s Best Night Together Returns September 16; Honorary Committee & Sponsorship Deadline June 30



Together for Youth will host its signature fundraising event, Best Night Together, on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at The Egg’s newly renovated Hart Lounge. This annual gathering brings together leaders from across the Capital Region to strengthen support for children and families statewide.

The business community plays a critical role in this work. Honorary Committee participation and event sponsorships directly fuel programs that provide food security, safe housing, family stabilization, mental health support, and foster care services for thousands of young people across New York State. To be included in printed invitations, the deadline to join the Honorary Committee or secure a sponsorship is June 30.

Guests will enjoy cocktails, food stations from Old Daley Catering, live music, networking, and a curated silent auction featuring local and regional offerings.

By joining the Honorary Committee, you become part of an influential group of ambassadors who elevate awareness and expand the organization’s reach. Committee members receive early event access, opportunities to connect with Together for Youth leadership, and recognition for their commitment to strengthening communities.

Sponsorship opportunities are also available for organizations seeking to demonstrate their leadership in supporting youth and family well‑being. Sponsors receive visibility leading up to and throughout the event, along with meaningful engagement opportunities with community partners and stakeholders.

Best Night Together reflects Together for Youth’s 140‑year commitment to keeping children safe, strengthening families, and building resilient communities.

To purchase tickets, join the Honorary Committee, or secure a sponsorship, visit togetherforyouth.org/bestnight or contact Joslyn McArdle, Corporate & Foundation Relations Manager, at [email protected] or 845‑476‑2670.
