About this Event
Welcome to the KAA-MaCC 11th Anniversary & Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony 2024: The Year of the Woman, themed "Empowering Excellence: Honoring Trailblazing Women and Inspiring Future Generations!" Join us for a special in-person event at 401 Laureate Way in Kannapolis, NC as we celebrate the achievements of incredible women in our community.
This year, we honor the trailblazers who have made a lasting impact in their fields. In alignment with our theme, we will recognize seven extraordinary women whose lives and legacies have profoundly impacted our community. Our honorees include:
• Dr. Catrelia Steele Hunter (Cleveland, Rowan County)
• Dr. Mary Strawder Ponds (Granite Quarry, Rowan County)
• Mrs. Alice Steele-Robinson (Concord, Cabarrus County)
• Mrs. Betty Evans Eddleman (Posthumous, Concord, Cabarrus County)

• Mrs. Ruth McIlwain Curry (Posthumous, Kannapolis, Cabarrus County)
• Mrs. Mary Ellen Phifer-Kirton (Posthumous, Kannapolis, Cabarrus County)
This event supports the KAA-MaCC Vision 2026 Initiative, a bold plan to establish a per-manent home for a museum and cultural center, expanding our educational programs. Our mission is to preserve and share the rich history and culture of African-Americans in Cabarrus and Rowan Counties.
The evening will feature a silent auction, dinner, live entertainment, keynote address, and an awards presentation. Tickets are priced at $100 each, with tables seating 10 available for $1,000. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. Supporting this event through attendance, donations, or sponsorship will play a crucial role in helping KAA-MaCC sustain daily operations, preserve cultural heritage, and help build our community.
Come and be a part of this unforgettable evening as we recognize the power and resilience of women. Get ready to witness history in the making!
