About this Event

An Evening of Legacy

The Dale Caldwell Foundation invites you to join us for a very special evening as we celebrate our 10th Anniversary and honor the extraordinary life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Gil Caldwell.

For ten years, the Dale Caldwell Foundation has worked to educate, empower, and elevate individuals and communities by creating pathways toward education, employment, entrepreneurship, opportunity, and flourishing.

This milestone celebration is especially meaningful as we pay tribute to Rev. Dr. Gil Caldwell — a faith leader, civil rights pioneer, mentor, visionary, and friend of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His lifetime of service, courage, faith, and commitment to justice continues to inspire our work and the generations that follow.

An Evening of Legacy will bring together family, friends, community leaders, supporters, partners, and members of the DCF community for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, remembrance, music, fellowship, and purpose.
