🌿 Our Why: About the Event

Green Hearts, Gold Futures is more than a fundraiser — it’s a celebration of strength, connection, and community. Hosted by United Parents, this annual event brings together passionate advocates, parent leaders, and local partners to uplift families raising children with emotional, behavioral, or mental health needs.


At United Parents, we know that when caregivers are supported, children and communities thrive. This event helps us raise critical funds to sustain and expand life-changing programs like our Parent Drop-In Centers, Educational Advocacy, and Respite Services.



Every guest, every sponsor, every story shared helps plant the seeds for stronger families and brighter futures. Join us in honoring the heart behind every healing journey — the parent.
