This long-standing community tradition brings together supporters from across the city for a day of friendly competition and impact. This year's tournament will feature teams from many City and County of San Francisco departments, along with organizations including the Golden State Warriors, San Francisco Giants, Mayor's Office, and more, all stepping onto the field to support San Francisco youth.

🏆 Who will take home this year's championship title?

🦈 San Jose Sharks merchandise
🎟️ Event and attraction tickets
🏝️ A 4-night stay experience
✨ And more exciting prizes!

A special thank you to our generous raffle donors for helping make this tournament even more impactful. Every dollar raised helps support City Youth Now's programs, services, and scholarship opportunities for youth impacted by the juvenile justice and foster care systems. Whether you're cheering from the sidelines, supporting a team, or purchasing raffle tickets, you're helping create brighter futures for young people across San Francisco.

See you on June 13! 💙⚾️

We are STILL feeling the energy, love, and impact from last Thursday’s 76th Annual Rise Awards 🎉✨

Because of this incredible community, we welcomed more than 140 attendees, celebrated 10 amazing youth scholarship recipients, and raised nearly $40,000 to continue supporting and uplifting youth across our community. 💙

Every ticket purchased, donation made, raffle entered, conversation shared, and moment celebrated helped remind our youth that they are seen, valued, and supported. The room was filled with resilience, hope, laughter, and powerful stories that we will carry with us for a long time.

To our sponsors, donors, volunteers, board members, partners, and everyone who showed up for our youth: thank you. Your support allows us to continue creating opportunities, removing barriers, and investing in brighter futures for the young people we serve.

This was more than just an event. It was a reminder of what community can do when we come together. 🌟

And with that… we’ll see you at the 2027 Rise Awards 🎊

2025 flew by and we’re just now catching our breath! ✨🎉 As we play catch-up, we’re excited to share some highlights from last year — starting with our Personal Empowerment Program (PEP)!

Our Personal Empowerment Program (PEP) supports the holistic growth of youth at-promise by covering needs that traditional funding often can’t. We do this through various programs, like our micro-grants program! Through micro-grants, we provide temporary and emergency support for things like medical and dental assistance or care, independent living essentials, groceries, and recreational programs that encourage positive, pro-social activities 🌱💪

This work is only possible because of the incredible support from our community. Huge thank you to our partners and supporters: Ticket to Dream Foundation, Simply the Basics, Junior League of San Francisco, Foster Love, Klarich Family Fund, the Fremont Foundation, and all of our amazing individual donors 💛🙌

We’re so grateful to everyone who continues to stand with CYN and the young people we serve. We can’t wait to see what this next year brings! 🚀
