PARK CITY, Utah — Youth United is combining its donor appreciation event with its fundraising event at the upcoming Super Sunday Sign Up Day, where over 30 organizations in Park City will help register hundreds of children for activities and services.

Because Youth United reaches the entire Latinx community, it invites non-sports entities like Hope Alliance, immigration lawyers, affordable housing organizations, the People’s Health Clinic, the Park City Hospital, the University of Utah, and many others to this event.

There will be free food and drink for all attendees.
