HOMECOMING 2026
Homecoming is one of the most meaningful nights of the REACH Memphis year—a celebration of student voice, growth, and community. It’s the moment when our scholars step forward to share how their Summer Experience shaped their confidence, broadened their horizons, and influenced the paths they’re choosing for their futures. Alumni return to reflect on the opportunities that once propelled them, creating a powerful bridge between past and present. Whether you’re a supporter, partner, or someone who believes in the impact of access and mentorship, Homecoming offers an inspiring, firsthand look at the transformation your involvement makes possible. It’s a night of connection, storytelling, and shared purpose—and you won’t want to miss it.
