NCBW-MAC Signature Events allow the chapter to support the objectives of the Teens on the Move Mentoring Program and Scholarship Fund along with educating the public through our community programs.
Signature Events
Gourmet Gents
The Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter launched “Gourmet Gents” in 1990 as the organization’s first annual fundraiser. For the inaugural event, more than 100 Atlanta gentlemen responded to the Chapter’s call to volunteer their time, culinary skills and food to raise money for the Chapter’s service project. To date, thousands have attended and supported the signature charity function, which includes volunteer chefs, food from Atlanta’s premier restaurants, and live entertainment. Since its inception, Gourmet Gents has helped to support the organization’s teen mentoring program - Teens On the Move. The Gourmet Gents event also includes some of Atlanta’s most prominent professionals, civic and business leaders, and local media personalities.

'Tee Off for Teens' Annual Golf Tournament
To further our mission, one of NCBW-MAC’s most notable advancement efforts is the annual “Tee off for Teens” Golf Tournament. Proceeds from the annual tournament directly support NCBW-MAC teen scholarship fund. The Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter is committed to creating opportunities for African-American female youth so they will grow into self-sufficient adults. Our Scholarship Fund provides tuition assistance to young women who show academic improvement in grades 9-12 so they can continue to pursue their education and obtain college degrees. Since 1995, the Coalition has been able to award more than 488 scholarships to young women totaling more than $795,000. Because of your participation in “Tee Off for Teens”, the Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter will be able to touch even more young women with our scholarships. Thanks to the generosity of our members, partners and sponsors, we continue to see the results — young women thriving in college and making a significant impact in their communities.

Unsung Heroines
The Metropolitan Atlanta Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., conceived the Unsung Heroine Awards Gala in 1997, as an opportunity to recognize African-American women. The awards are presented to women in our community who work tirelessly to empower their community in the vital areas of education, health, politics, civic responsibility, business and entertainment. These women toil tirelessly without recognition. The women honored are nominated by their peers and voted on by an independent panel.
Proceeds from this event will benefit the organization's Economic Empowerment Programs, that provide transitional support services to women and children who need a helping hand as they move from dependency to self-sufficiency. Thanks to the Allstate Foundation, the title sponsor of the Economic Empowerment Initiative: "Sisters Helping Sisters", NCBW-MAC is empowering the Atlanta community.
