A Night of Awards, Recognition, and Empowerment

The 17th Anniversary Awards Banquet, hosted by the Guardian Civic League, will be held Wednesday, October 23, 2019 at the Embassy Suites Hotel, 9000 Bartram Ave., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The black-tie optional Gala begins at 6 p.m. with cocktails, followed by a sit-down dinner at 7 p.m. The Theme for this year's Gala is "From Warriors to Guardians: Changing The Culture of Policing."

The 17th Anniversary Awards Program is a prestigious, nominated awards program. The Program recognizes individuals from our membership, law enforcement and community who exhibit excellence in leadership, professional achievement, and a heart for giving back to their communities. The award recipients have a demonstrated desire towards diversity and inclusion, and have made a contribution to the economic and community development not only throughout Pennsylvania, but also in Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. The Gala is the organization's largest fundraising event, attracting attendees from across the state, including business owners, corporate leaders, professionals, state and local representatives and other stakeholders. Attendees are sure to enjoy the opportunity to meet and network during the cocktail hour and the dinner. There will be a silent auction taking place throughout the evening, with all proceeds benefiting student scholarships, enhanced training for law enforcement, and the various community policing programs engaged by NABLEO. The evening will also include an awards presentation and keynote speech, and conclude with entertainment.

The Keynote Speaker for this event will be Sheriff Garry McFadden
