FUNDRAISER
Building Back Better:
The Truth For Youth- Building Back Better “ONE BRICK AT A TIME” Belmont Walkway Project will help us to REBUILD, REVITALIZE, and RENOVATE the 40,000sqft Belmont Cultural Center, which is our headquarters, operating facility and a 1918 treasured gem in the community once known as Bennett’s Bakery, Reed’s Bakery, and Smith’s Bakery, and is a Pensacola landmark. It is located within “The Blocks”, the Historic Belmont-DeVilliers neighborhood, and Black business and entertainment district, strategically situated within the heart of Downtown Pensacola near the designated site of the Pensacola Blues- Mississippi Blues Trail, Historic Marker.
With the purchase and donation of your brick, we will receive the necessary capital to financially support the renovations of this historic property. Your brick will be prominently displayed throughout the Belmont Cultural Center Walkway at the foot of the Legendary Trio mural of Louis Armstrong, Aretha Franklin, and B.B. King. Your donation helps us to revitalize a tourism destination attraction, rebuild a treasured cultural space, and renovate a historic preservation icon that draws local, regional, and weekend travelers- gathering at their favorite spot, Belmont-DeVilliers.
Truth For Youth is honored to support and thank the City of Pensacola for this prestigious event celebrating a true pillar of our community!
The City of Pensacola invites everyone to attend the Rev. John H. Powell Honorary Street Naming Ceremony this Saturday. We remember and celebrate Rev. Powell—a champion dedicated to impacting the lives of our youth and uplifting Pensacola.
Event Details
When: Saturday, November 1st, at 12 p.m.
Where: The corner of West Belmont Street and North DeVillers Street (in front of Five Sisters Blues Café)
We will be having two events, both will be at the same location (Brownsville Community Center). On July 21st from 6pm to 8pm there will be an open mic for people to give 2 min expressions. On July 22nd, visitation will be from 11am to 12pm and then the service will start at 12pm and end no later than 1:30pm.
This event is for the community to come out and give 2 minute expressions on Rev. John Powell. This is not a Wake. Because of the time constraints with the funeral service, we wanted the community to be able to have a chance to talk about the Reverend. This will be on July 21st from 6pm to 8pm at the Brownsville Community Center.
