As our region and nation prepare to welcome the world for next year's World Cup, we will enjoy an evening to celebrate the diverse backgrounds represented at South Bronx United! We will celebrate all the paths our youth and families take to be part of this American Dream and recognize how much this diversity adds to the fabric of our communities.
The evening's program will include an annual update from our Executive Director, an alumni speaker, special guests (to be announced), a silent auction, live music, and more!
