Black Equity Ball 2024

On Friday, February 23, Young Black Homeowners (YBH), partnering with the African American Leadership Forum (AALFWA), hosted the second Black Equity Ball. This red-carpet affair was created to honor the journey of current and future black homeowners as they embark on the experience of gaining first-time homeownership. The event showcased DJing, musical performances, vendors, a champagne toast, and a dinner catered by That Brown Girl Cooks! that set the tone for the evening.

"Here in Seattle, King County, we actually have homeownership rates that are lower than the average on the national scale. So by having events like this, what we're doing is changing the narrative or changing the culture," Anzhane Slaughter, the founder and CEO of YBH, said. "We're getting people excited and inspiring others to make homeownership a legitimate and tangible goal for them. "
