It was a formal and exciting time at the Hilton Anatole on this past Saturday night! The 45th anniversary of the Urban League Gala presented awards to well-deserving people and provided an outstanding audience. There was music and dinner that brought everyone together in grace and honor.
There was a delightful local band, VINJAC who smoothed out the night for the audience and guests. The event was hosted by WFAA Channel 8 meteorologist Greg Fields and awards were presented by CEO/President of Urban League, Dr. Beverly Mitchell-Brooks.
The awards presented were the Buddy J. Minyard Corporate Award for Coco Cola Refreshments, Community of Spirit Award for Edna Pemberton, Whitney M. Young Jr. Humanitarian Award for James Washington, and President’s Award for Stan Levenson.
