Humanitarian Award Dinner

  

Thank you to all who made our
Humanitarian Award Dinner one of our most successful to date! 

Almost 900 people attended our dinner on Wednesday, November 7, 2007, in honor of Christopher Connor and Dr. Eugene Sanders.   Heartfelt thanks to all who participated, contributed, and made it an amazing success.  All of the funds raised go to support our programs which enact our mission of advancing diversity, challenging assumptions and advocating for understanding. 
Thank you!
