     Please join us for the NAACP Eula Johnson 2018 Freedom Fund Luncheon, Saturday, July 28, 2018, at the Signature Grand. This is our annual fundraiser for the Fort Lauderdale/Broward Branch.

Joe Trembly, who 30 years ago was a homeless gay man living on the streets of Fort Lauderdale, speaks to LGBTQ community leaders at the Community Foundation of Broward.  The Foundation recently announced the award of five grants totaling $300,000 as part of its Broward Pride program, including a grant to an innovative program championed by Trembly.

Terrius Bruce, who graduated from Tallahassee Community College in May and will attend Florida A&M University this fall as School of the Environment student, is one of about 30 students from across the country chosen to participate in the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) for U.S. Underrepresented Minority Students Summer Program in Costa Rica, which is funded by the National Science Foundation’s Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation Program (LSAMP).

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share with you and to those who may find it helpful my experience as a growing boy to young adult
