Celebrating Juneteenth: LiftFund Advancing Equity in Lending and Beyond
As the echoes of history resonate today, the story of Juneteenth stands as a beacon of resilience and hope, marking both a pivotal moment in the fight for freedom and a reminder of the enduring quest for equity. This significant day, celebrated on June 19th, commemorates the moment in 1865 when the news of the Emancipation Proclamation finally reached enslaved people in Texas, more than two years after it was issued. Today, Juneteenth serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of the long and continuing journey toward true equality and justice.
