Join the Eugene-Springfield NAACP for its annual Freedom Fund Dinner. The dinner is the organization's primary fundraiser, and you're invited to bring family, friends and colleagues to network, celebrate, and support a vital community organization. All funds received through the evening's silent auction will help fund the Mattie Reynolds Scholarship.

This year's theme is "Educating for the Future," featuring the Oregon Department of Education Leadership Team and Master of Ceremonies Sen. James Manning. The event will be an affirmation of the urgent need to support youth through innovative education efforts at the local level. Special guests and organizations who focus their work on social justice and climate change will be honored.

Tickets are available here.
