LOOKING BACK
The Midwest Regional Black Family Reunion Celebration was inaugurated in 1989 in Cincinnati, Ohio. This event continues to grow and is now one of Cincinnati’s largest family-focused events drawing over 50,000 patrons. It is held annually the third weekend of August. Through the generous support of our sponsors we are able to offer the event to the public at no charge.
Conceived by Dr. Dorothy I. Height, President Emerita of the National Council of Negro Women, the Black Family Reunion Celebration is a 3-day cultural weekend event which brings consumers, corporations, and communities together to focus on the historic strengths and values of the Black Family.
The National Council of Negro Women is dedicated to ensuring that the historic morals of the Black family are showcased and reinforced through responsive and innovative community service programs, such as the Black Family Reunion Celebration.
LOOKING AHEAD
Although twenty eight celebrations were created across the country, the Cincinnati location is the only celebration remaining. We are proud to say that we have every intention of remaining as staple event in the United States; and for that we need sponsors like you. As we approach next year’s festivities, we are excited to extend the invitation of sponsorship to you and your company. Please review and contact us with any questions.
