40th Annual Freedom Fund Gala

Thank you for your support of our annual Freedom Fund Gala. We greatly appreciate your support as it enabled us to continue our tradition of voter protection and empowerment, health and education, as well as providing scholarships that help to make college an attainable goal to students in Genesee County. Unfortunately, like most of the world, COVID deterred our plans of hosting our annual event in 2020, but it did not halt our work.

We hope that support continues as we plan the 2021 Flint Branch Freedom Fund Celebration. This event will be held on November 13, 2021 at the Holiday Inn Gateway Centre, but in the interest of the health and safety of our community, it will be at half capacity with on-line viewing and advertising capabilities. Sanitation stations will be provided, as well as masks, which will be a requirement to enter the event. Social distancing and contact tracing will also be in place. Online viewing will be available to anyone that places a donation of $40 or more.

We are dedicated to fulfilling our mission in gearing up to fight the voter suppression legislation, as well as voter education and empowerment, education disparities, making sure that we are viable in all areas of inequality. It takes resources to engage in the many battles, that we are called to get involved in. We are all volunteers at this level of advocacy, but we are the needed voices in our respective communities across this country to affect the desired change that is needed to have a more equitable country.

If you have any questions regarding this event please feel free to contact us at: Flint Branch NAACP at (810) 742-8622, or by mail at 3455 Lippincott Blvd., Flint, MI 48507. You can also reach us by or e-mail at flintfreedom_fund@comcast.net.
