The Power of Love/ Love Power Gala will be part of singer Luther Vandross’ legacy. The fundraiser hosted by his foundation marks the 35th anniversary of the superstar’s Grammy-winning hit, Power of Love / Love Power. Enjoy live entertainment by Sherry Wilson Butler, a tribute to Vandross’ music, and an elegant Valentine’s Day celebration, including a dinner and live auction.
Singles and couples can indulge in an evening of fun and fundraising. Proceeds will support scholarships for students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Honored at the event will be Dr. Brenda A. Allen, President of Lincoln University of Pennsylvania, Patty Jackson, multimedia personality from WDAS-FM/ iHeartRadio, and Primary Wave, the Home of Legends.
So far, the Luther Vandross Foundation has awarded more than $1 million in scholarships to HBCU students nationwide. The goal is to raise at least $100,000 this year.
