The 5th Annual Karli Short Better Tomorrow Foundation Gala is happening on June 12th, 2026! This year it will be taking place at Acrisure Stadium, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers!

Prepare for another unforgettable night filled with sports legends, special guests, delicious food, and cocktails — all for a meaningful cause.

In honor of Karli Short, daughter of Brandon Short, former PSU and NFL Football player and Penn State Board Trustee, and her unborn child whom we lost to gun violence last September. The Karli Short Better Tomorrow Scholarship Fund was started in her memory.

The Scholarship Fund will support students at Penn State Greater Allegheny, located in our hometown of McKeesport, Pennsylvania. The endowment will assist students with financial needs who have been affected by gun violence.
