The affair is in its 21st year and is one not to be missed.

I know this may seem last minute, and yes, you literally have a few more hours to purchase a ticket as NO TICKETS will be sold at the door, BUT this is my last attempt to lure you into an evening of celebration, importance, elegance, fun, frolic, good food, festivities, fresh new faces, and the icing on the cake - A Real Caribbean After Party!

I also know that the $150 ticket will throw some of you off, but do remember that there is no price for blood, sweat and tears.  

When you add passion in the mix, and commitment, and dedication, it really becomes even more priceless.  

JUST DO IT!

You will not regret it.

Dr. Claire Nelson who is the force behind, in front and in the middle of this Gala, is dear to me, as we have done a lot together over the past few years including traveling to China for the China Friendship Tour, Ethiopia and Tanzania for the Leon Sullivan Foundation Journey of a Lifetime, and working on various projects too many to mention.  

As women on the move, we have also spent considerable time brainstorming on numerous projects, and also just TALKING together because of mutual respect and admiration, and we draw strength from each other, so I really love that.  

One of the my favorite things that I did with Dr. Nelson was to sit down with her on the PEP couch in 2011 and have a PEP Talk with her...this is still one of my favorite pepisodes in Season 1.

Take a few minutes to watch the video below, and do not forget to link me by 4pm if you would like to attend and sit at my table TONIGHT!!!!

In the good doctor's own words TODAY,
