This year’s dinner themed: “Bridging the past, looking to the future” will honor local journalist, Kathy Clay-Little and raise funds for a UTSA endowed sholarship held in her name. Kathy passed away in 2011 at the age of 60 after years of activism dedicated to preserving and improving San Antonio’s East Side community and commerce. The Awards dinner was her way of recognizing local unsung heroes. This year, several local individuals from the San Antonio Juneteenth Association, the community, and corporate business have come together to ensure her legacy lives on.
