The YGB Gala was founded by three Wilmington influencers in response to the international BLM protests following the death of George Floyd in early 2020. With a passion to plug in locally, the program was designed to create sustainable mentorships for young, gifted, black students opening a world of opportunity to them and effecting a pattern of positive change.

This pro bono project was a no-brainer for Honey Head. With a desire to level the playing field for underprivileged and underrepresented voices in our immediate community and the world at large, every minute spent developing this project was fulfilling.
