Triumph’s 3rd Annual Harlem Children’s Zone (HCZ) Young Professionals Fundraiser
Saturday, July 16th, 2011
3pm-5pm
The event will be held on the rooftop of HCZ Headquarters on 125th Street in Harlem, New York with keynote address from HCZ CEO Geoffrey Canada.
HCZ is a pioneering community based organization that President Barack Obama heralds as the conceptual foundation of his anti-poverty program. Last year we raised over $26,000 in support of HCZ’s College Success Office.

This year, we hope to surpass the success of last year’s event as we focus our efforts on another critical component to the HCZ pipeline.
HCZ’s Geoffrey Canada was named to Time Magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. The magazine has an article written by US Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and its website has the video below about our work:
