The 2026 Jondelle Johnson Freedom Fund Dinner, will take place on Saturday, October 24, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. at the Courtland Grand Hotel, 165a Courtland Street NE, Atlanta, Georgia.

This year’s theme, “The Power Is in Your Hand,” reflects the responsibility we each carry to advance justice, strengthen our communities, and help create meaningful and lasting change.

The Freedom Fund Dinner was one of the Atlanta Branch’s most significant annual gatherings. It is with distinguished pleasure that this event resumes after a 11 year hiatus. It will bring together community leaders, advocates, educators, business professionals, and supporters for an evening of unity, purpose, and progress. The event will also help generate essential support for the branch’s continued civil rights advocacy, community programming, and efforts to empower individuals and families throughout Atlanta.
