I’m excited to invite you to The Flossy Organization’s 2nd Annual Justice & Equity Gala — a night to celebrate our work closing the advocacy gap in marginalized communities and to rally support for the future.

For years, The Flossy has empowered youth and elders in Canarsie and across East Brooklyn through intergenerational civic training, grassroots organizing, and campaigns that have delivered real wins — from securing $1.6M for a Cure Violence site to stopping an environmental hazard in our community.

At our gala, you’ll hear inspiring stories from our Advocacy Academy graduates, connect with community leaders, and help us sustain and grow our impact.

Here’s how you can support:

• Buy a ticket — and join us to celebrate.

• Sponsor a table or the event — or connect me with someone who can.

• Pay it forward — so a young leader can attend for free.

• Make a donation — if you can’t attend but still want to help power our work.

Every conversation I’ve had with community members lately — from students to seniors — reinforces why The Flossy matters. People come to us for advocacy tools, civic education, and a sense of belonging. Your support ensures we keep building a movement that transforms our neighborhoods from the ground up.

I’d love for you to be part of this milestone. Let’s celebrate what we’ve built together and fuel the work ahead.
