This year’s Must! Charities Youth Board didn’t just show up—they stepped up.

After a year of volunteering across our county and learning from local nonprofits, these students made a powerful decision: to invest in CELEBRE, a People's Self-Help Housing program supporting first-generation girls on their path to higher education.

And then… they made it happen.

Together, they raised $12,500 to fund mentorship, college tours, and real opportunities for the next generation.

We are incredibly proud of this group, not just for what they raised, but for what it represents. These young leaders understand the importance of lifting others up, investing in their peers, and turning compassion into action. With the support of JB Dewar, this program continues to empower students to lead with purpose, and this year’s cohort did exactly that.

Leaders in the making. The future is in good hands.

DONOR APPRECIATION PARTY

A Recap

We loved gathering with our donors at this year’s Donor Appreciation Party. It was a perfect evening in North County filled with great weather, delicious food, wonderful music, and the gift of enjoying one another’s company. It’s always a special evening for our team to thank those who believe in our mission.

Gratitude on the Green:

The Austin Hope Golf Tournament

An unforgettable day of generosity and community in support of the Must! Charities mission.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Hope Family Wines team and to all the sponsors, players, and volunteers who made the day possible.

This year, we brought the energy with a baseball-inspired theme at Hole #1, adding a fun, creative twist to an already impactful event.

And the impact was real: together, we raised $167,000 to support meaningful change across our community.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, played big, and made a difference.
