The Young Investors Society is proud to host its Invest in the Future Fundraising Gala on May 28, 2026 at 6:00 PM in New York City.

This special evening will bring together leaders from across finance and education to support a shared mission: expanding access to financial literacy for the next generation.

We are honored to welcome Bob Doll, CFA, CEO and CIO of Crossmark Global Investments, as our keynote speaker, and to recognize Vivian Lin Thurston, CFA, Partner & Portfolio Manager at William Blair Investment Management, for her leadership and commitment to investing excellence.

Proceeds from the gala directly support Young Investors Society’s mission to provide free, high-quality financial education and experiential investing programs to high school students worldwide, including the YIS Access Initiative which serves underserved communities. Since its founding in 2015 with just six pilot schools, YIS has grown to serve more than 17,000 students across 3,500 schools in 47 states and over 100 countries.
