Freedom Fund Dinner

Deadline for Tickets: February 13, 2025. Get yours now!

Save the date for the 2025 Freedom Fund Dinner on February 22, 2025 which will support both the Duluth Branch of the NAACP and Ignite Empower Transform.

The Freedom Fund Dinner is the Duluth NAACP's biggest fundraiser of the year. It will be held February 22 at the DECC Harborside Ballroom. This year's Keynote Speaker is Taifa Butler of Demos and our emcee is local legend Carl Crawford. It is an opportunity to bring the community together, to celebrate each other, and to recognize social justice advocates. Our major goal this year will be to raise funds for Ignite Empower Transform's Economic Empowerment Center operating in the Twin Ports. Our secondary goal will be funding for the Duluth NAACP operating expenses.
