Update 1

October 11, 2022

This is the Black Formal organization’s fourth year working with Catalyzer to raise funds for our event, which has been recognized by many as an integral part of the Black experience at Northwestern University. We as a committee are seeking to put on, for the seventh year, a Formal full of fellowship and fun to further strengthen the ties between Northwestern’s Black undergraduate community! Proceeds go directly to the committee that is in charge of putting together the most memorable event we can. Support in all forms is appreciated whether it be a monetary gift or passing along this fundraiser to those you think may be inclined to give.
