🎉 This weekend, WEDC showed up for the community in two places at once.

On Saturday, our CEO Nikki Hahn represented WEDC at Nyack's 16th Annual African-American Day Parade & Festival in Rockland County, a celebration of unity, peace, and harmony that brought the community together in a powerful way.

At the same time, WEDC Westchester WBC Director Iris Cohello joined the Fourth Annual Rochambeau Festival in Yorktown Heights, an immersive experience commemorating the 250th Anniversary of the birth of our nation, alongside organizer Lynn Briggs and the wider community.

Two events. Two communities. One mission. 🙌
