Letter From Jorgie
Dear Friends of Jorgie and Brandon, FL,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to extend an invitation to you to attend our upcoming Franks Juneteenth Charity Gala on June 17th. The event is organized to raise funds to support three local charities that have been doing incredible work in our community.
As you may know, Juneteenth is an important holiday that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. It is a day to celebrate freedom, progress, and the resilience of African American communities. To mark this occasion, we are organizing a gala that will bring together individuals and organizations from all walks of life to support these charities.
The event promises to be a night to remember, with great music, food, and entertainment. There will be opportunities to connect with other like-minded individuals who share a passion for social justice and community empowerment. Most importantly, however, you will be making a real difference in the lives of those who need it most.
