FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Unity CDC begins planning the Joliet Black
Pride Festivities

Unity Community Development Corporation
is planning and coordinating the Joliet Black
Pride festivities.  However, we need your
assistance with volunteering and support.  
As you may know, the late Dave L. Evans was
the co-founder and Chairman of Joliet Black
pride Inc., established in 1987 to promote the
positive aspects of the African American
community.  

Over the last 23 years, Black Pride has
sponsored parades, recognition banquets,
essay contests, youth activities, and gospel
concerts.  

Last year the Black Pride parade had 90
units in the parade which made it one of the
largest parades in Will County.  Additionally,
there were over 800 participants supporting
the Black Pride picnic.

However, with your support and pride, Unity
CDC can make the Joliet Black Pride
Festivities a continued reality.  Again, we are
requesting a $25.00 donation, which will help
pay for the Law Enforcement Services.

The dates for the Black Pride Picnic will be
Saturday, September 18, 2010, 11:00 AM – 6:
00 PM and the Black Pride Parade, with a
downtown Joliet route, on Sunday, October
19, 201, 2:45 PM .

To make the parade a continued success,
we are requesting your attendance at a
Special Meeting to inform you of the picnic
and parade plans, and seek your
commitment to volunteer your time and
resources.

The Special Meetings will be held; Monday,
August 23, 2010 and Thursday, August 26,
2010, 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM at Unity CDC,
Center for Working Families, Dave L. Evans
Campus, located at 201 S. Briggs St. Joliet,
IL. (formerly St Mary Magdalene School)

We look forward to seeing you at this
important planning and volunteer meeting.
