President’s Message
A new year is a time for new beginnings. As we begin 2010, I am excited to share with you some of the Cherry Hill African American Civic Association’s plans for the year. Our support of our young people and their education continues with one new and one familiar event in 2010.
This month, CHAACA is a proud sponsor of the new Martin Luther King Day contest.
Cherry Hill high school students were encouraged to submit their interpretation of a conversation between Martin Luther King Jr. and President Barak Obama. Preliminary judging of entries will happen this week and the final presentation and judging will happen on Martin Luther King Day. Please make time to support our youth by attending one or all of these Martin Luther King Day events.
We are also busy planning our annual scholarship jazz brunch college scholarship fundraiser. Each year as we come together to celebrate the achievements of graduating Cherry Hill students, we are reminded of our commitment to ensure their success. Your support and continuation of this event is an investment in their future. I hope you will attend on May 8, 2010 and help us to continue our mission of supporting education.
I wish you a healthy and prosperous new year with all of God’s blessings.
Bill McCargo
President
