Things are looking a little different this year, but we can’t wait to party with you! We’ve expanded our annual celebration to include three events:

• Voices from the Frontlines Grantee Panel, Wednesday 9/18, 6-8PM

• Our centerpiece Annual (Virtual) Dinner, Saturday 9/26, 7-8:30PM

• Virtual Dance Party + Fund 4 the Frontlines Campaign Launch, Sunday 9/27, 1-2:30PM

We’ve decided to commit every dollar raised during our week of celebration — that would usually go to our annual fund — to the final stretch of Fund 4 the Frontlines, our campaign to grow SJF capacity and raise $2.5 million for grassroots base-building grants.

We’re able to do this thanks to your incredible support over the past few months; it’s because of our SJF community that we can focus on moving even more money to grantees, at a time when it matters more than ever.

Centerpiece event – Annual (Virtual) Dinner: We’re happy to welcome you to an hour of reflection, connection, building, and giving at our Annual (Virtual) Dinner.

Reconnect in breakout rooms with your virtual table, feel transported by radical performances, hear how SJF has funded movement work this year, and be inspired by movement leaders in the region.
