About this Event

GECAC’s 60th Anniversary Celebration

Join us in celebrating 60 years of impact, empowerment, and community. Since 1965, the Greater Erie Community Action Committee (GECAC) has been dedicated to fighting poverty, empowering individuals, and strengthening communities. Now, six decades later, we gather to honor our legacy and look toward a future full of promise.

Enjoy an inspiring evening of reflection and recognition, featuring:

  • Keynote Speakers – Thoughtful insights that reflect the heart of GECAC’s mission
  • Award Presentations – Honoring exceptional community members and partners
  • Historical Highlights – A look back at the milestones that shaped our journey
  • Dr. Ben Wilson – A visionary perspective on GECAC’s future
  • Reception – Heavy hors d’oeuvres and cocktails will be served

Celebrate with us as we pay tribute to the past, recognize those making a difference today, and embrace the possibilities of tomorrow.
