✨ 13 YEARS. AND STILL COMMUNITY MATTERS. ✨
We haven’t been curating the Brunch for 13 years without the love, belief, and support of our community.
Over the years, we’ve been blessed to partner with some BIG names, brands and organizations that believed in what we were building and helped us take The Brunch to another level.
But the small businesses matter too.
The entrepreneurs. The local brands. The folks who are in the community, serving the community, hiring the community, creating in the community, healing the community and showing up for the community.
They have helped make this possible, too.
So as we get ready for the 13th Annual Howard Homecoming Alumni Brunch & Day Party, we’re giving our sponsors their flowers. 🌸
Because this isn’t just an event that has lasted 13 years.
It’s a community that has kept showing up for 13 years.
To every sponsor, partner, vendor, supporter, and Original Bruncher who has poured into this experience: THANK YOU.
This is what community looks like. And we don’t take it for granted.
Please like, follow and share these businesses to your community.
