Celebrating Our Kids is the annual fundraising event where we share inspiring stories with leaders in Charlotte and surrounding communities.

As the leader in children’s mental and behavioral health, Alexander Youth Network changes the lives of over 5,000 children each year. Of equal importance, we equip families and caregivers with the resources and hope to manage through difficult times. By providing a safe space for children to heal and learn how to trust again, Alexander is a place where every child can realize their true potential.

The 2026 Celebrating Our Kids luncheon will take place on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, at the NASCAR Hall of Fame (400 East Martin Luther King Jr., Blvd., Charlotte, NC 28202) from 12:00pm – 1:00pm. If you are interested in joining us to learn more about the work of Alexander Youth Network, please contact Crissy Humble at chumble@aynkids.org.
