Taking place on March 17 at the Omni Hotel and sponsored by Hennessy, the Local Love Awards is a black tie gala benefiting Project 16, a Dallas based non-profit organization. Luminaries including NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, boxing rising star Errol Spence Jr. and others celebrated those who have contributed their talents, arts and resources to the Dallas/Ft. Worth Community and who embody Hennessy’s “Never Stop. Never Settle.” mantra.
The Local Love Awards is a fundraising gala highlighting and honoring our local small businesses, entrepreneurs, and humanitarian organizations in the Dallas Fort Worth area. This exciting event is to recognize individuals and minority businesses that are often the over looked and forgotten infrastructures, that transform areas into viable communities, and holds those communities together by serving and meeting the needs of the people who live there. These businesses and individuals contribute greatly to the unique character of our city by improving our neighborhoods, strengthening our economy, as well as providing our citizens with more job opportunities. They lead by example in their respective fields which aides in igniting the entrepreneurial spirit in our young business-minded children. It is time, yet again, to put the spotlight on the true backbone of our city. This event will include awards being given in various categories, a seated dinner, dancing, entertainment and more.
All the proceeds from the Local Love Awards will be donated to Project 16. Project 16 is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a charitable and educational intent, geared toward serving our underprivileged, at-risk youth, through support, education, and exposure while instilling basic life skills to help prepare them for a better, more successful future. Project 16 wants all kids prepared to be outstanding and upstanding citizens, and workforce ready before they graduate from high school.
