ONLINE: Dream Ball

courtesy Women in Focus
Deana Wright will be one of the emcees for the 2022 Dream Ball.
This annual event hosted by Women in Focus is a fundraiser for the all-volunteer organization's scholarship fund, which has been helping Dane County students of color attend college since 1986. The virtual program for 2022 features speakers including former scholarship recipients Terrence Carey, Danielle Crim and Naman Siad, Madison schools Superintendent Carlton Jenkins, and emcees Portia Adney and Deana Wright, plus music by DJ Drew Masters. The livestream is free to watch, but donations are encouraged; funds are also raised via a silent auction. Find the program and online auction at wif.cbo.io.
