Duluth Salvation Army Plans Black and White Ball Fundraiser

The Duluth Salvation Army is hosting its second annual Black and White Ball on May 16, offering a night of dinner, dancing, and fundraising to support its social service and youth programs. The event, featuring ballroom dance lessons and demonstrations, aims to combine community enjoyment with charitable giving, with all proceeds benefiting the organization's general fund. Similarly, Preak Weeks in Baltimore is spotlighting local businesses in the lead-up to the 150th Preakness Stakes, providing ticket giveaways, promotional opportunities, and revenue sharing to support small, BIPOC-, and women-owned businesses. This initiative is part of broader efforts to foster economic growth and visibility for independent merchants in Park Heights.
