The Center for University-Based Development at Jackson State University is excited to invite the West Jackson community to our Heritage Awards Mix and Mingle on Sunday, November 23 from 4:00 until 6:00 p.m. in Ballroom A (3rd floor) of the JSU Student Center.

The purpose of this event is to bring all West Jackson neighbors together for an evening of networking to engage in ways that improve our community. There is so much to be proud of in our community, and neighborhood associations play a major role in making things happen.

There is no cost to attend this event, however, we are requesting that each neighborhood association:

– Bring toys and/or canned or dry food items that will be included in “care packages” for selected families in West Jackson to be delivered the week before Christmas.
– Invite the community and be ready to enjoy some good food and a great time!

Please RSVP for this event as soon as possible by calling 601.979.2255 to reserve a seat or table of eight (8). This will enable us to assure that we meet the accommodations for all to enjoy food, fun and fellowship. Mark your calendars and we’ll see you on Sunday, November 23rd!
