SOF CORE's International Culture Festival is being presented in loving memory of its founder, the Rev. Dr. Akilah Karima. Dr. Karima passed away on March 16, 2019 from secondary breast cancer (Stage 4 brain cancer). Since her transition, The World Alliance of Indigenous Peoples and many artists from around the world are working extremely hard to keep her legacy alive. This is why we are asking anyone wishing to assist us in our efforts, to sponsor this year’s festival. Your donations will help to create jobs for many talented artists who live to share their stories and talents via the Cultural and Fine Arts. With your help we will continue to raise awareness about secondary breast cancer, while producing high quality programs that are free or little to no cost to the public. We hope that you will tune in for our live stream on Facebook on September 11th & 12th between 12:00 and 6:00 PM, so that we may express our sincere thanks to you through what we know best, live entertainment!
