About this Event

Help Word is Bond send our next cohort of youth leaders to Ghana! The fourth-annual Black Star Homecoming Expedition takes off June 14, and we need your support.

The Black Stars Benefit Dinner is a one-of-a-kind storytelling and cuisine experience. Guests enjoy a private plated dinner at the renowned Akadi restaurant, featuring small group conversations and storytelling with the youth leaders who are headed to Ghana.

Buy a table for your organization, or join a community table with local community members. Each table is hosted by a youth leader who is your storytelling guide for the evening.

All funds raised go towards sending our young men back home. Learn more at wordisbond.org
