Hello friends and dear supporters,
I’m honored to invite you to the 2025 “Family Reunion Hollywood Gala,” hosted by GEANCO Foundation. As a former co-chair of the gala, I would be delighted to have you join us for an unforgettable night of elegance, culture, and compassion.
Date & Venue:
Friday, December 5, 2025 — 1 Hotel, Sunset Ballroom, 8490 Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, CA. 
Evening Schedule:
• 6:00 PM (PDT) — Red-carpet reception featuring African-inspired appetizers, Nigerian music, a silent auction, and celebrity appearances. 
• 7:30 PM — Gala programme with a celebrity panel, a keynote discussion by Shay Safarzadeh & Shabnam Safarzadeh of the Safar Global Foundation, and a short film showcasing GEANCO’s Creative Arts Summit in Nigeria. 
This evening is more than a gala — it’s a moment to come together as one global family, celebrate African heritage and creativity, and make a real difference back home. All proceeds will support the David Oyelowo Leadership Scholarship for Girls — helping young female victims of terrorism and gender inequality in Nigeria gain access to tuition, medical care, leadership training, and emotional-well-being support.
