On March 23, 2019 the South Jersey Young Professionals Association (SJYPA) threw their 10th Annual Halo Ball! Over 250 guests gathered at Lucien’s Manor in Berlin, NJ to celebrate Halo Award winner Angela Barnshaw, CEO and Broker of Record of Agent06, who is the founder of the SJYPA and the Halo Ball. The evening was a huge success at the beautiful venue with over 100 raffle baskets and auction items leaving the premises with happy guests. Included in the evening of great food, dancing, award presentations, and prize winning, was a moving speech given by Hopeworks Youth Healing Team intern, Annette Johnson.
This amazing and fun event raised money for Hopeworks’ training stipends so that more young people in Camden can be on track to be a future South Jersey Young Professional!
We look forward to the check presentation at a networking breakfast scheduled for May 8th where the SJYPA members and guests will meet more of the youth they are supporting and see our training room and interns in action!
