2026 Tailored for Tomorrow Fundraising Gala
Celebrate 20 years of Foster Care Closet with us at Memorial Stadium! The Tailored for Tomorrow Gala is both a look back at two decades of serving Nebraska’s youth and a critical fundraiser to sustain our mission moving forward. We rely on this night to ensure that every Nebraska youth entering foster care receives the dignity of a new wardrobe and essential care items throughout their foster care journey. Join us to honor our history, celebrate our community, and invest in the future.
*While tickets are complimentary, advance registration is required to attend*
Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy:
- Cocktail hour with a cash bar
- Silent auction
- Access to the Club balcony for photos overlooking the field
- Buffet dinner and dessert (including vegetarian and gluten friendly options)

- A special message from our founder, Leigh Esau
- Live Auction with Husker athletic tickets (Volleyball, Basketball, Football)
