We invite you to join us for the Celebration of Life and Leadership Gala on Friday, September 22 at 6:30 PM at Lansdowne Resort to honor the 2023 Loudoun Laurels Foundation Laureates and Scholars. This year’s Loudoun Laurels Laureates are Sheila Johnson and Lew Parker. These two individuals have made a significant impact on our community and continue to serve as leaders, philanthropists, and visionaries throughout our region.
The gala also celebrates two area high school graduates who will each receive a $40,000.00 scholarship to attend a four year in-state college or university of their choice. Our scholars are trailblazers, who not only excel academically, but also by giving back to the community through volunteerism.
The evening begins with a cocktail hour and silent auction followed by a sit-down surf and turf dinner with a champagne toast to celebrate our Laureates and Scholars. We hope you will join us for one of Loudoun County’s premier charity events.
Tickets and sponsorship opportunities are still available for this event. Please visit our website at loudounlaurels.org.
