On Oct. 21 at 6 p.m. Eliza’s Helping Hands will host its first virtual fundraiser. COVID-19 has prevented Eliza’s from having a large gathering this year, so in lieu of presenting the first Purple Gala, Eliza’s will instead feature a small documentary featuring Grammy award winning “Public Enemy” group member Professor Griff, motivational speaker Busta Brown, local actors, community leaders, and survivors discussing domestic violence and how COVID has changed their lives.
Early voting begins today and here in Forsyth County voters can cast their ballots at 17 different sites, including the Forsyth County Government Center.
Over the past few weeks, Union Baptist Church (UBC) has been hosting a series of election forums where guests come together to discuss the importance of voting. And last week Rev. Dr. Al Sharpton and local legend Dr. Virginia Newell joined UBC senior pastor Bishop Sir Walter Mack during a virtual forum to ignite voters here in Forsyth County.
