The Sneaker Dreams and Social Deeds Sneaker Ball Fundraiser Dance aims to support the development of Black professionals in the field of social work, community planning and social justice. The Atlanta Chapter ABSW sponsors the William Bradley Scholarship each year providing funds for a Black student obtaining their undergraduate or graduate degree. The proceeds of the Sneaker Ball will increase the amount of the William Bradley Scholarship from $250 to $500/yr. Additional funds will assist in the development of the $250 Bessie Shavers Scholarship supporting undergraduate and graduate students in Social Justice programs.
