On October 21, 2023, at 6:00 p.m., the NAACP Lackawanna County Branch will host its Inaugural Freedom Fund Banquet at Fiorelli’s at 1501 Main Street, Peckville, PA.

The banquet will honor an inspiring and proactive African American Scranton community leader and entrepreneur, Louise Tanner Brown. The Louise Tanner Brown Award recipient is Rasheeda Lewis Austin- Human Resource, Municipal Civil Service. This year’s theme is “We’ve Only Just Begun”.

Our annual banquet also offers a wonderful marketing opportunity for local politicians, business owners, lawyers, doctors, churches, restaurants, vendors, and other groups to advertise in our collectible program booklet at a very low rate. Your ad will be viewed by over 200 guests in one night!

You also have an opportunity to support the NAACP by submitting for memorials, graduations, retirements, congratulations and future announcements and events. We have pages dedicated to those who want their names posted as patrons (you can gather names from churches, sports teams, and family members etc. to add as patrons). If you would like to attend the banquet please visit our website to purchase tickets or tables (seated for 10)
