Join urban university's annual marquee event to celebrate single mothers and community!

EVENT DETAILS:
May 4th
1:00 - 3:30 pm
The Workshop, 3235 Grand Ave., Oakland

We invite you to become a part of this amazing event as we honor the mothers and community members in our orbit. Help us honor our program graduates, key supporters, and heroic community members. With the 2025 SHEROs Awards, we'll be shining a light on local leaders with a commendation from the City of Oakland. The single mothers are organizing and leading a fashion show as the highlight of the event, and you won't want to miss the joy and the energy!

We will also have light bites from Montperi Catering and a mix of beverages along with wines from Cittavino & Co. Gorgeous flower displays from Fleurish Floral Designs and floral sculptures created by one of our program participants under the guidance of Freya, owner or Brother & Sisters Flower Shop will punctuate the scene.

- Expand our housing services to 10 families as a trusted, long-term partner in the City of Oakland’s coordinated entry system for homeless families and expanded housing alliance.
