2nd Annual
Sipping for Success - High Tea with the Ladies of the Williams-Franklin Foundation
Date: April 12, 2025
Our 2nd Annual Ladies Tea Fundraiser was a beautiful success — a gathering filled with grace, purpose, and community spirit. We came together not only to enjoy an afternoon of elegance but to uplift and empower the next generation of HBCU leaders.
This wasn’t just a tea—it was a movement.
Rooted in elegance, purpose, and empowerment, this event brought together a room full of ambitious women committed to uplifting one another—and the next generation of HBCU leaders. From the nostalgic sounds of Harp and Cello to custom sips poured by our Champagne Fairy, the room was filled with warmth, laughter, and intentional connection.
Special Thanks to Our Women-Led Corporate Sponsors
We are immensely grateful to our incredible women-led corporate sponsors for helping bring this vision to life. Your partnership continues to fuel our mission and uplift the next generation of Black excellence.
Congratulations to Our 2025 Honorees:
- Rehva Jones – SHERO Award
- Alencia Johnson – Anna Julia Cooper Award
Thanks to the generosity and presence of our guests, we celebrated legacy, sisterhood, and impact. The room was filled with trailblazing women, thoughtful conversations, and heartfelt moments — all in support of educational access and opportunity.
Together, we sipped on success, networked with intention, and raised vital funds for deserving HBCU students. And we’re just getting started. The proceeds from this special event will go directly toward supporting HBCU students as they pursue their dreams. Thank you for helping us continue this powerful legacy of giving and growth.
