In line with the 2025 Black History Month theme, “African Americans and Labor,” we are celebrating Black leaders in Houston and surrounding areas who have excelled in their fields while also contributing to the well-being and empowerment of our communities. By honoring their contributions, we align our mission of fostering connection, support, and empowerment with the broader narrative of labor and legacy—showing that true progress is built on the foundation of shared efforts and collective resilience.

Honorees:
