Our Pre-Show Gala is the perfect gateway to the Award Ceremony. Walk the red carpet, partake in delectable cuisine and libations, and get ready for an evening to remember.

The attire for the evening is cocktail. View the slides for style inspiration.

Students from local schools attend the Student Forum to learn more about Freedom Award honorees and their impact on community and society. Attendees have the opportunity to interface with guests, ask questions and discuss issues important to their peer groups and communities.

 

The Keeper of the Dream award honors 6th through 12th graders throughout the Greater Memphis Area recognizing them for their extraordinary courage, compassion, leadership and service.
