Dear Friends,

Welcome to another Dougbe River School Gala! Join us to celebrate this year of success, hear from the students and board about progress, and “shop” for great prizes at the Silent Auction. We’ll once again enjoy a 50/50 Raffle, Wine Pull, and more!

We’re excited to announce that the Djapo Cultural Arts Institute will again entertain us with a West African program. Djapo’s mission is to engage the community in the preservation and understanding of African diasporic works in music, dance, history and folklore. And you can do all this while enjoying heavy hors d’oeuvres, desserts and a cash bar.

Please invite friends and family to enjoy this wonderful evening or join us alone to celebrate. Your support makes our mission and our students’ futures possible. We look forward to seeing you!

Chandra Andersson
Board Chair
