2024 Holiday Cocktail Reception | Williams Franklin Foundation

2024 Annual Holiday Cocktail Reception

Date: December 3, 2024

Thank You for Celebrating with Us at the WFF Holiday Cocktail Experience!

Dear WFF Family and Supporters,

On December 3, 2024, the Williams-Franklin Foundation hosted its annual cocktail reception to celebrate 10 years of excellence surrounded by a community of supporters, stakeholders and students. We also honored 5 phenomenal HBCU change agents and influencers who have turned their PASSIONS INTO PURPOSE in their support of youth education, business and entrepreneurship. WFF Scholar Shelby Foulks (Hampton University) shared her gratitude for the foundation and highlighted the impact WFF has had on her collegiate journey.

This electrifying night would not have been possible without the unwavering support of 2 special WFF Partners: The Washington Gas Lighting Co. our venue sponsor and The Windsor Group LLC our event Title Sponsor. Your dedication to our mission has been instrumental in helping us.

We want to extend a huge thank you to you for joining us at the Williams-Franklin Foundation’s Holiday Cocktail Experience. Your presence helped make this event a true celebration of community, support, and the incredible milestones we’ve reached together over the past 10 years.

The evening was unforgettable, from hearing inspiring stories from HBCU scholars to honoring our award recipients, this event reminded us of the profound impact of your generosity. We hope you enjoyed the signature cocktails, gourmet cuisine, and the opportunity to connect with fellow supporters, change-makers, and visionaries.

Your support fuels our mission to provide scholarships, mentorship, and career-building opportunities for HBCU students facing financial challenges. If you’d like to continue supporting our work, we welcome you to make a donation via the button link below.

Together, we’re creating lasting pathways to higher education and brighter futures for students who need it most.

Thank you again for celebrating a decade of excellence with us. Wishing you a joyful holiday season and looking forward to seeing you at future events!
