Wellesley ABC Annual Event

The Wellesley ABC will be holding its annual fundraising event on May 12, 2017. This year's theme, "Reach for the Stars," will focus on the group's core mission of providing academically talented and promising young women of color from underserved communities A Better Chance through enrollment at Wellesley High School and participation in a residential program. According to Co-President and Co-Chair of the event, Sunny Allen, Wellesley ABC, "We want to celebrate all that the program does and has done for almost 45 years, to give young women of color the educational springboard to "Reach for the Stars" and pursue their educational and career goals with all the support we can give."
This year's Community Champion Award will be presented to portrait photographer Roger Pellisier. Since 2008 Mr. Pellisier has been photographing ABC's scholars for use in the organization's annual appeal and website. More importantly these portraits don the halls of the ABC house and make it feel like home. These beautiful portraits are generously presented to each senior and her family upon graduation.
