Join us for a night of joy and celebration at Solar Youth's largest fundraiser! Solar Jam allows for our community of FOSY (Friends of Solar Youth) to come together and show support for New Haven's Youth. Through our programs, we strive to help our youth develop leadership skills, act as positive agents of change in their communities, create healthy relationships, and graduate high school with concrete education or career plans.

None of this would be possible without YOU, our FOSY, providing us with the resources to expand and enrich the services we provide to our incredibly smart, brave, and talented youth.

Special thank you to our sponsors for making this event happen: Carmody Torrance, Sandak & Hennessey LLP, Yale University, Yale-New Haven Hospital, Jewish Foundation of Greater New Haven, Walden Hill, Start Community Bank, New Alliance Foundation, Levy Dental Group, AT&T, A-1 Toyota, Science Park Development Corp, Farnam Associates, & Svigals + Partners

***Registration closes Thursday, May 10th at 9AM, but tickets will be sold at the door***
