The Westin Copley Place, Boston

This year marks YW Boston’s 31st annual Academy of Women Achievers (AWA) celebration, which brings together hundreds of Boston professionals to honor five extraordinary women exemplifying leadership and creating change in our city. This celebration is YW Boston’s largest annual fundraiser, supporting our crucial work to build a more inclusive Boston.
Proceeds from AWA directly support YW Boston's programs which focus on dismantling systemic barriers faced by women, people of color, and especially women of color. Our programs work with individuals, institutions, and organizations across Greater Boston to change policies, practices, attitudes and behaviors to be more inclusive, breaking down barriers to opportunity and leadership for those who are often excluded. This year’s AWA event will take place on June 4, 2026, at The Westin Copley Place. We’re excited to honor Lauren Cook (Ellis Early Learning), Nathalie Gauthier (State Street), Sandra McCroom, (Children's Services of Roxbury), Shavel'le Olivier (Mattapan Food and Fitness Coalition), and Yves Salomon-Fernández (Urban College of Boston) as this year’s awardees. We are grateful for your consideration, and we hope to partner with you this year to recognize some of Boston's most exceptional women leaders.

MA Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and Jaylen Brown’s The 7uice Foundation to Be Honored Together at Trinity Boston Connects’ Gala

BOSTON, MA — April 13, 2026— Trinity Boston Connects (TBC), a nonprofit organization serving Boston’s youth through year-round racial equity, restorative justice, and healing-centered programming, will host its 19th Annual Bostonians for Youth Gala on June 4, 2026, at the Fairmont Copley Plaza. The event will honor two of Boston’s most influential voices for young people: Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and The 7uice Foundation, founded by Jaylen Brown and Mechalle Brown. 

Attorney General Campbell will receive the 2026 Leader of Change Award, recognizing an individual who is making a powerful impact in helping to create a more just and equitable Boston through critical and sustainable change. The 7uice Foundation will be honored with the inaugural Beloved Community Award
for its innovative work expanding opportunity for young people through education, technology, and community investment.

Together, these honorees represent a unique convergence of leadership across public service, professional sports, and grassroots community investment, a powerful reflection of Boston’s collective commitment to the next generation.

“Our young people are our next generation of leaders. As attorney general, and as the mom of two beautiful boys, I am fully committed to addressing the unprecedented challenges facing our youth and seeking out young voices to inform our work on issues that directly impact them,” said Attorney General Campbell. “I’m grateful to Trinity Boston Connects and The 7uice Foundation for their dedication to improving the lives of young people of color in Boston and beyond. Together we can create a more just, equitable future for every child.”

The gala’s theme, “Healing in Full Circle,” reflects the journey many young people experience through Trinity Boston Connects’ programs, beginning with belonging, deepening through connection and leadership, and returning as service to others. 

"At the 7uice Foundation, we believe that when young people are given access, support, and opportunity, they don’t just succeed, they lead,” said Mechalle Brown, President of the 7uice Foundation. “This recognition from Trinity Boston Connects reflects a shared commitment to building stronger, more equitable communities by investing in the brilliance and potential of our youth." 

The evening will unite leaders from across Boston’s civic, business, philanthropic, and nonprofit communities to celebrate the leaders and organizations helping shape a more just and hopeful future for Boston’s young people.

“To have Attorney General Campbell and the 7uice Foundation recognized together in the same evening speaks to the breadth of leadership required to support young people in our city,” said Charmane Higgins, Executive Director of Trinity Boston Connects. “From public leadership to community investment, their work reflects what is possible when people with influence use their platforms to create opportunity for the next generation.”

Leading the evening’s festivities is Paris Alston, host of Rooted at GBH News.

Now in its 19th year, the Bostonians for Youth Gala has become one of Boston’s signature gatherings focused on youth leadership and community healing. Proceeds from the event support Trinity Boston Connects’ youth programs, which provide leadership development, social-emotional learning, and community-building opportunities for young people across Boston.
