Freedom Fund Banquet

We are excited to announce that our keynote speaker for our banquet this year will be Nanda Nunnelly.
Nanda Nunnelly is a business entrepreneur, political activist, community organizer, educator, mother, and grandmother.
Ms. Nunnelly owns and manages NextGen Diagnostic Services, a medical laboratory located in Joplin, Missouri. NextGen provides contracted laboratory services for city, state, and federal entities. Since 2020, NextGen has provided free Covid-19, Flu, and RSV testing to communities state-wide, and currently offers testing, education, and enhanced cleaning services to members of our unhoused communities.

Ms. Nunnelly combines her love of history, theatre, and storytelling by creating Living History performances. Becoming the central character, she is able to weave a first-person account that is riveting and genuine. Ms. Nunnelly connects stories of the past to present day, and along the way inspires others to see History in a new way!
