Join the NAACP Media Area Branch for our 2026 Freedom Fund Luncheon on Saturday, October 31, 2026, from 11:30 AM to 2:30 PM at The Springhaven Club in Wallingford, Pennsylvania.
This year, we celebrate the transformative power of education and the importance of protecting the right to learn and defending the freedom to think.
As the educational landscape continues to evolve across both K-12 schools and higher education institutions, ensuring access to knowledge, fostering critical thinking, and preparing future generations for success remain essential to strong communities and a healthy democracy. Education has long served as a pathway to opportunity, empowerment, and progress, and its impact extends far beyond the classroom.
This year’s Freedom Fund Luncheon is an opportunity to come together in recognition of the educators, leaders, organizations, and community members who are helping to ensure that learning remains a pathway to opportunity and progress for all.
Join us for an afternoon of fellowship, inspiration, and celebration as we honor those whose work embodies the spirit of this year’s theme. Together, we will recognize achievements, share in community, and reaffirm our commitment to creating a future where every person has the freedom to learn, think, and reach their full potential.
We look forward to welcoming you as we celebrate the impact being made today and the possibilities that lie ahead.
