Fairfax County NAACP Awards Banquet

Dear Supporter,

Please join us on Saturday, September 13, as we host our Annual Awards Luncheon. The event will be at the Waterford Springfield, 6715 Commerce St.., Springfield, Virginia, from 1:oo-4:oo pm.

Our theme, “Civil Rights - 50 Years Later,” emphasizes the need for all races, genders, age groups, ethnic groups, to stand together to continue the fight for equality and justice for everyone. We must stand together and take a firm stand on our rights, as American citizens, to vote without intimidation, questioning or suppression; to be able to walk or drive without being profiled; and to continue the education and fight for the cure for HIV/AIDS and other health initiatives.

Our Keynote Speaker is Dr. Elavie Ndura, Professor of Education at George Mason University and Fulbright Senior Specialist Roster Candidate for Peace Education. The Master of Ceremonies is TV personality, WJLA-ABC 7, Sam Ford.

Tickets are $35 for adults and $25 (12 and under). Tables are $350. Tickets can be purchased online at www.fairfaxnaacp.org and I hope you will consider purchasing a table. Please RSVP by September 7. Tickets will not be sold at the door.

This is an excellent opportunity to advertise your business and/or send
well wishes to the Branch, by purchasing an ad in our souvenir program booklet. All ads must be camera-ready and received by September 7. Ads are $100 (full page), $50 (1/2 page) and $25 (1/4 page).

We have done some great things this year. With your support, we can continue the programs we have initiated and planned. We look forward to seeing you on September 13.

Cordially,

Shirley Ginwright
President
