After more than a decade of celebrating Mother’s Day by the women  of 
Atlanta under  the auspices of  Kura Njie, Mam Fatou Njie, Suna Njie and  
Anna Sarr  including  many other prominent women of the Atlanta community, 
Gambian  men of Atlanta have decided to reciprocate by organizing and 
managing all logistics of the  2008 annual Mother’s day picnic  in honor of their 
women and children in an effort to say “ THANK YOU” in appreciation of all 
their efforts rendered in the past years. 


This historic event will take place:

Date:    Sunday, May 11th, 2008- Mother’s Day.

Place @ The YMCA on Campbellton Road 

Time:     Sunday, May 11th, 2008 at 4pm. 


The idea has been regarded as a very laudable effort and endeavor by 
significant members of the Atlanta Gambian community, and one which was 
way overdue. In return the women have also agreed and decided to organize 
FATHER’s DAY for their men in June. 


Such a project could not have been initiated if it were not for the hard work 
and vision of Mr. Solomon Sylva - Atlanta’s internationally renowned DJ, 
Video/Photography and Sound Engineer, who have gathered and mobilized 
community leaders from all sectors of the Atlanta Gambian community 
including organizations, businessmen, religious leaders from both the Muslim 
and Christian communities. 


Although the organizing committee is at it’s infant stage, every SeneGambian 
Man in Atlanta is hereby encouraged to lend a helping hand by joining this 
worthy endeavor, so that our women will for once be shown how special and 
appreciative we are for every effort they give us by helping raise our families, 
not to mention their contributions towards the daily struggles of life in 
America.

help donate to this project, please call or contact:
