“The Annual Juneteenth-East St. Louis Unity and Wellness Festival is the only metro-east/southern IL celebration highlighting the historical significance of June 19, 1865, America's true Emancipation Day offering several benefits to the whole family. By sponsoring this event are able to introduce more citizens to our programs and organize them around common community issues.
As members of The National Juneteenth Observance Foundation we share a common mission: "To bring all Americans together to celebrate our common bond of freedom through the recognition, observance, education and historic preservation of Juneteenth in America."
"Together we will see Juneteenth Independence Day become a
National Holiday Observance in America!"
