Carver’s most anticipated traditions are back in 2026, and we invite our entire community to save the dates for two events that make an outsized impact on the young people we serve.
First up is Carver’s signature celebration—the Child of America Gala—on Friday, May 1, 2026. Each year, this unforgettable evening brings together leaders, partners, and friends who share a commitment to Carver’s mission of expanding opportunity for our youth. The Gala not only honors extraordinary individuals who embody Carver’s values, but it also raises vital support for our year-round academic, enrichment, and workforce programs that reach nearly 3,000 students across Norwalk and Bridgeport. From inspiring student voices to community celebration, the Child of America Gala is a powerful reminder of what is possible when we come together for young people.
Then, on Monday, June 15, 2026, we look forward to welcoming supporters to the 12th Annual Carver Golf Classic. This beloved tournament has become a cornerstone of Carver’s calendar—bringing together corporate partners, donors, board members, alumni, and friends for a day of competition, connection, and camaraderie. More than just a great day on the course, the Golf Classic fuels scholarships, internships, and college- and career-readiness programs that help Carver students thrive long after they graduate.
Together, these two events reflect the heart of Carver: community, opportunity, and investment in the next generation.
Additional details—including honorees, locations, registration, and sponsorship opportunities—will be shared in the weeks ahead. For now, please mark your calendars and plan to join us as we celebrate, connect, and make a difference for Norwalk’s youth.
We can’t wait to see you there.
