A Night to Remember: Behind Every Mask, A Mission

The 1st Annual Global Kinship Center Masquerade Ball was a living expression of our mission to create a world rooted in empathy, compassion, and meaningful impact.

Guests gathered to honor three extraordinary leaders whose lives represent the full circle of transformation we cultivate:

Ms. Bettie J. Spruill and Dr. Ray Blanchard: Our Transformational Leadership Lifetime Achievement Award Honorees are legendary pioneers of transformational leadership. As beloved mentors, thier adult-training methodology has shaped generations of conscious leaders.

Tyona McCoy-Jennette, Student Leader of the Year Honoree, is a bright example of courage and service through the Extreme Teen Leaders program, which helps young people discover their voice, build confidence, and lead from purpose.

Together, their leadership bridges youth and adulthood, modeling what’s possible when transformation begins within and ripples outward.

Because of your generosity and support, we raised over $35,000 to expand scholarships and programming for teens, adults and families.
