A Heartfelt Thank You to All Who Joined AFGE Local 17’s Black History Month Brunch
Thursday, February 15, 2024, was a memorable day as we gathered for AFGE Local 17’s Black History Month Brunch in the VA Canteen at VA’s Central Office. The event was a beautiful celebration of the enduring legacy and invaluable contributions of African Americans to our history and society.
We were thrilled to see so many faces, both familiar and new. The turnout was heartwarming, and the sense of community was wonderful. It’s events like these that remind us of the strength and beauty in our diversity and shared history.
The brunch provided an excellent opportunity for reflection, conversation, and togetherness. It was not just a gathering over good food; it was a moment to connect with the stories and achievements that have shaped our collective past and present. We aimed to create a welcoming space for all, and your presence helped make that a reality.
