The Greater Cleveland Aquarium and the United Black Fund of Greater Cleveland Inc. (UBF) invite the public to a Martin Luther King Jr. Day community fund- and friend-raiser. Each guest who chooses to donate $1 or more to UBF receives same-day discounted $10 Aquarium admission. In 2017, 2,500 MLK Day Aquarium guests donated to UBF, a grant-making organization providing financial assistance to agencies that both empower and address challenges facing Greater Cleveland’s African American community. “We work to strengthen the capacity of grassroots organizations that positively impact those in need,” explains UBF Executive Director Cecil Lipscomb, CNM. “From the recovery services of ORCA House to Rainey Institute’s arts enrichment, our more than 80 non-profit agency partners deliver basic needs, education, workforce development and, most importantly, hope to thousands of children, families and seniors annually.” UBF volunteers will be stationed in the FirstEnergy Powerhouse Lobby to take donations and provide discounted admission vouchers. Both adults and children receive the general admission rate of $10 when donating at least $1 each. No pre-sales are available and the discount is valid January 15, 2018 only.
