2025 Community Service Award
Our LACAAEA 2025 Annual Black History Month Black-Tie Gala & Fundraiser will recognize and celebrate individuals and organizations who demonstrate how they are instrumental or impactful in shaping the lives, cultures, and histories of Black Angelenos in multivariate settings such as labor in factories, the military, government agencies, public service, private homes, community social justice activists, voluntary workers serving others, institution building in churches, community groups, and social clubs and organizations. Black people’s work has been transformational throughout America, Africa, and the Diaspora. This year’s theme, “African Americans and Labor: The Past, The Present, Our Future”, sets out to highlight and celebrate the potent impact of this work.
