The Massachusetts Baptist Multicultural Ministries (MBMM) will be holding its Annual Fundraising Gala and Silent Auction on November 2, 2024 at the Riverview Restaurant at the Hudson Portuguese Club in Hudson, MA. Proceeds from the event will be used to help fund MBMM, whose work includes a broad variety of services to New Americans navigating through complex American institutions. Our work helps them integrate through American society and become an active contributing citizen within the community.
One of the initiatives this fundraising event serves is the ACE Center for New Americans. It is a program of the Massachusetts Baptist Multicultural Ministries, a 501c(3) tax-exempt organization. The ACE Center is a non-sectarian program that exists to assist and meet the diverse needs of numerous immigrant and ethnic communities of all faiths and traditions, with a spirit of radical hospitality. Our mission is to Advocate for immigrants and refugees as they move towards self-sufficiency; Celebrate the culture, tradition, inclusion, and achievements of immigrants; and Empower them to exist as new Americans while attaining the goals afforded to every American.
