Lansing, Illinois Oct 9, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - The NAACP Chicago Far-South Suburban Branch (CFSSB) is happy to announce its highly anticipated Annual Freedom Fund Luncheon, themed"THRIVING: In Our Community," scheduled for November 5, 2023. This important event, hosted at the Serbian Social Center, 18550 Stoney Island Avenue, Lansing, Illinois, from 2 to 5 p.m., aims to promote unity, diversity, and equality within the Chicago South Suburban area.
"This event is something we look forward to every year," commented Gary Dingle, president of the NAACP-CFSSB. "Your support is vital and helps ensure our event succeeds.
