Check out this message from our founder Merry Green!

Dear MGPG Events and BWe Family,

I hope that you had a fantastic Thanksgiving spending time with those who matter most, and eating all the deliciousness you could handle!

Now here we are on Cyber Monday, which ushers in a season that can be extremely important for businesses big and small!

As a long-time entrepreneur, I know well the importance of days like Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday. Each day offers a unique opportunity to support brands through shopping and sharing.

I invite you to think back to the hundreds of businesses that took a chance to participate as an exhibitor at the Black Women's Expo. No matter their success on those three days, they still have to keep striving and thriving. We can help them by visiting their websites, making a purchase, following them on social media, and inviting others to do the same, and this can be done ANY TIME, not just on days that marketed for giving and support.

If it weren't for the continued support of sponsors and small businesses from across the country, MGPG Events, Inc. surely would not be where it is today. So my message is simple. Showing gratitude and support of others always comes back in some positive form! Mark my words!

Talk soon!

Warmly submitted,

Merry Green

Dear MGPG Events and BWe Family,

Last Saturday night, the MGPG Events team, in partnership with the Chicago Urban League, produced one of the largest Golden Fellowship Dinner Galas on record. With more than 2,300 in attendance, McCormick Place undoubted transformed in a landscape of Black excellence!

From the moment the doors opened at the VIP reception, I knew that night would be magical! Fantasia brought the fire and energy per usual and more than $4 million was raised in support of the League's programs and initiatives!

I extend my heartfelt thanks to Karen Freeman-Wilson President and CEO of the Chicago Urban League and Gala chair Toi Salter for trusting me to infuse my vision into what has forever been the most highly anticipated black-tie affair in Chicago. The team (many pictured above), led by chair Toi Salter was a blast to work with, and I admired their determination to "get it right" on every level!

Oh and did I mention all of this amazement happened on my birthday?!?! I think I deserve a t-shirt or something that says "I Survived GFD!" But in all seriousness, thank for the countless birthday wishes and all of the "y'all did that" messages! I'm exhausted but filled with joy!

I am gonna get some rest then get back in the game. After all, BWe will be here before we know it! Talk soon!

Warmly submitted,

Merry Green
