Dr. Germaine Smith-BaughPresident and CEOUrban League of Broward County
Our journey through this year would not have been
possible without the time, talent and resources of our
intricate network. We are proud of the accomplishment
we’ve made this year. We increased our voice and
advanced key strategic initiatives particularly in the areas
of economic empowerment and advocacy. This enabled
us to strengthen our responsibility to our community and
create greater value for our stakeholders.
With contributors, visionaries and leaders such as you,
the Urban League of Broward County continues to
transform our community and to facilitate growing
financial endeavors where limited opportunities existed.
Our four pillars of service ensure that the nearly 9,000
individuals who come through the Urban League doors
are garnered with skills, resources, and tools to help
them succeed in every area of their lives.
We look forward to continuing our joint efforts of
strengthening our communities in the years to come.
Serving Broward County is an honor.
