2020 Milestone Celebration!
To all those who have supported Stockton2020, we thank you. We are proud and excited to officially announce our transition to a 501c3 non-profit corporation. In honor of our new status as the first youth-based non-profit in our area, we would like to invite you to the first Stockton2020 Milestone Celebration held in the lobby of the Benerd School of Education on the University of Pacific Campus. The Stockton2020 Milestone Celebration will be held from 7 to 8:30 PM this Friday May 2nd. Refreshments will be provided, but it would be awesome if you could bring some goodies! The event will be held in honor of the late Fran Abbott, a long-time youth advocate, who played a crucial role in our beginning.
This could not have been possible without the help of dedicated individuals and organizations. A special thanks goes out to Fred Gertler, Lynn Beck, Philip Gilbertson, Susan Eggman, the Library and Literacy Foundation of San Joaquin, the Friends of the Stockton Public Library, Sophoan Sorn Productions, and Susan Lenz and Connie Logan from Iacopi Lenz & Associates. You dreamt with us and believed in us. Now please join us as we celebrate this milestone.

Nabeel, I only just today (4/30) learned of your Milestone Celebration honoring Fran Abbott on Friday. That’s the same date and time of the Stockton Symphony’s big “Pops & Picnic” concert at Stockton Civic Auditorium, a date long set in stone. Thousands will be there, including me, many of them who support Stockton2020 and who knew Fran. I’m sorry there was no advance promotion or pre-planning coordination in order to avoid this conflict.
