ISAAC
The 2010 Streets of Hope Banquet drew over 400 people to the Bernhard Center on March 20.
The keynote speaker was Che Madyun, an inspiring community organizer featured in Streets of Hope:The Fall and Rise of an Urban Neighborhood.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of board members, the generosity of member congregations, and the giving spirit of local businesses, non-profits, civic leaders, and institutions over $36,000 was raised!
These funds will allow the congregations and organizations of ISAAC to continue to work together to build a more just community.
A big thank you goes out to all of our donors, guests, board members, award recipients, and presenters!
