Inaugural NJ Empowerment Awards and Fundraiser

Dear Friends and Supporters,

We are thrilled to invite you to a landmark event: the New Jersey Black Empowerment Coalition (NJBEC) Inaugural Empowerment Awards and Fundraiser on Thursday, October 10th, at 6 pm at the South Orange Performing Arts Center.

This evening promises to be a powerful celebration of those on the frontlines of promoting inclusive democracy, advancing racial justice policy, and fostering civic participation. It’s more than just an event—it’s a call to action.

By attending, you’ll have the unique opportunity to connect and network with industry leaders who are driving change in our community. This is your chance to stand alongside the champions of inclusive democracy, those pushing for racial justice, and advocates who are ensuring that every voice is heard and represented.

Your presence will help shine a spotlight on the exceptional work being done to:

- Ensure that inclusive democracy and civic participation are not just ideals, but realities in our community.

- Drive racial justice policy that promotes fairness, equity, and the values we hold dear.

- Empower Black communities by centering generational wealth and self-sufficiency.

Tickets are $125, including complimentary beer, wine, and passed hors d'oeuvres throughout the evening. Every ticket purchased directly supports NJBEC’s critical work in our community.

Together, we can amplify the impact of this movement. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of something truly transformative!
