Hello Supporters of the YJCW NAACP ACT-SO,

Due to the inclement weather forecasted this weekend, the ACT-SO Committee has decided to reschedule the MLK Awards Luncheon to 4th Sunday, January 26, 2025, at 3:00PM at the Williamsburg Hellenic Center. We look forward to honoring Dr. King's life and work, while also recognizing area high school students for their academic excellence.

If you have any questions, please contact me directly at [email protected]. Thank you in advance for your support.

Respectfully,
Reggie Fox, ACT-SO Chair
