Become a Sponsor!

We invite you to invest in our Fifth Annual Juneteenth Celebration to be held Wednesday, June 19, 2025 from 4-7pm at the Bandstand at Hingham Harbor.

The South Shore Unity Council feels this is an incredible opportunity for our South Shore communities to come together to celebrate the resilience, solidarity and culture of our Black and Brown neighbors and friends and remind us of the ongoing work to be done in pursuit of freedom, justice and equality for all.

To extend the reach of this year’s event, which commemorates the date the news of the end of slavery finally reached Texas – June 19, 1865, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed, our planning committee includes members from several other South Shore towns, as well as Hingham’s METCO families. This diverse group of volunteers will make this year’s event bigger and better than ever, with some exciting new entertainment, an inflatable obstacle course, face painting, and other fun activities for young families.

This is a vital event for our region and we’d love to have you partner with us to help bring it to life. Your generosity will help us fund the entertainment, activities, and marketing for this fun, free, family celebration.
