55th Dinner Save the Date Email Header

For 55 years, ACCESS has stood with our communities - advancing opportunity, reducing hardship, and opening pathways to a stronger future for all. Whether in moments of joy or challenge, we have continued our dedication to the empowerment of millions across the state of Michigan and the rest of the country. With more than 120 programs operating in Southeast Michigan, along with four esteemed national institutions - the Arab American National Museum (AANM), the National Network for Arab American Communities (NNAAC), the Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP), and the Center for Arab Narratives (CAN) – ACCESS continues to honor our heritage while expanding opportunity, elevating voices, and strengthening families nationwide.

The ACCESS 55th Anniversary Dinner is where stories of resilience, leadership, and cultural legacy come alive, culminating in the presentation of the Arab American of the Year award. It's a unique opportunity for our local and national supporters to come together for a powerful night that raises critical funds to help our agency rise to meet today's challenges, offer impactful programs, and address our communities' needs.

The evening brings together nearly 2,000 community members, friends, and allies, including business, corporate, and nonprofit leaders. The ACCESS 55th Anniversary Dinner promises to be a memorable night that highlights our cultural heritage and the achievements of people in our community.

Please join us as a sponsor of this signature event, a friend of ACCESS, and a supporter of our mission of empowering individuals and families locally and nationally. Stand with us as we work to bring empowerment, dignity, and opportunity to every corner of our community.
