Thank You for Supporting the 2026 AFJ Impact Awards!

You are Justice In Action.

Thank you for an unforgettable evening of purpose, generosity, and possibility.

What stays with us after an evening like this is the people. Our Participants celebrating how far they’ve come. Our staff standing beside them with pride. And a room full of supporters committed to what comes next.

Whether you joined us at Tribeca 360, made a gift, or helped bring the evening together, you are part of this work. Your generosity helps ensure young people have someone in their corner, support to continue their education, and opportunities to build their futures.

Your generosity. Lasting impact.

The People Behind the Impact.

We were proud to honor James Cadogan, Rick Trepp, and Jily Bonilla: two leaders advancing justice and an AFJ Program Graduate who embodies our impact. Together, they remind us of what’s possible when we invest in young people, recognize their potential, and support them as they pursue it.

The evening ended. The work continues.

There are still court dates to prepare for, internships to secure, and young people who need a trusted person in their corner. You can help sustain that support with a gift, an employer introduction, a workplace visit, or your time and expertise.

KEEP JUSTICE IN ACTION

To our sponsors, Board, partners, volunteers, staff, Participants, families, and supporters: thank you for believing in our young people and putting that belief into action.
