In a vibrant celebration of International Women's Day, the Centro Romeu Cascaes Portuguese American Community Center is set to host an exceptional dinner event on Saturday, March 9, 2024. The festivities will commence at 7 p.m. at the CRC Community Center, located at the heart of Harrison at 14 South Frank E. Rodgers Blvd. This annual event promises an evening of reflection, recognition, and entertainment, highlighting the remarkable contributions of women around the globe.

International Women's Day, celebrated each year on March 8, is a global day recognizing the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity. Its origins trace back to the early 20th century, born from the labor movements in North America and Europe, evolving to become a unified day of celebration and advocacy for women's rights worldwide.

The Centro Romeu Cascaes Portuguese American Community Center, known for its active engagement in cultural and social activities, aims to honor this spirit through its International Women's Day Dinner. With tickets priced at $65.00 for adults and $35.00 for children aged 6 to 13, the event is an invitation to the community to come together in a shared appreciation for the strides made toward gender equality and the journey that lies ahead.

Given the sold-out success of last year's event and the limited seating available, prospective attendees are encouraged to secure their reservations promptly. Reservations can be made by calling Conceicao Mariero at 201-401-0828, ensuring a spot at this anticipated gathering.

Adding to the celebratory atmosphere, DJ Nokas will be on hand to provide entertainment and music, guaranteeing an evening of joyous celebration and meaningful connection. In addition, the program will include the presentation of Centro Romeu Cascaes Scholarships to recipients going on to higher education on behalf of the Centro Rome Cascaes Scholarship Fund.

The International Women's Day Dinner is more than just a social event; it is a reflection of the Center's commitment to fostering community spirit and highlighting important societal milestones. It serves as a reminder of the collective responsibility to champion the cause of gender equality and celebrate the achievements of women past, present, and future.

As we look forward to this memorable evening, let us come together to honor the essence of International Women's Day and embrace the values it represents. Join us in this special celebration at the Centro Romeu Cascaes Portuguese American Community Center, and be part of a global movement towards a more equitable world.
