Black Belt Community Foundation's 2024 Legacy Dinner

The 2024 Black Belt Legacy Dinner - Honoring Chris Womack and Celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Black Belt Community Foundation

The Black Belt Community Foundation (BBCF) is thrilled to announce its 2024 Black Belt Legacy Dinner as it celebrates the 20th anniversary of its founding, taking place on October 3, 2024, at the Harbert Center in Birmingham. The evening will commence with a 6pm reception celebrating Black Belt culture and arts, followed by dinner and an award presentation honoring Chris Womack, Chairman, President, and CEO of Southern Company.

As a Black Belt native and distinguished business leader, Womack exemplifies the transformative impact of BBCF's mission. Since its founding in 2004, the Foundation has invested over $20 million in grants to nonprofits strengthening Alabama's 12-county Black Belt region. Notable initiatives have included storm shelters, tornado relief, arts and culture, affordable housing, racial equity programs, civic engagement, capacity building, widespread food distribution, pandemic relief and recovery operations, and early childhood education.
