The community of Elizabethtown is set to gather for a special event that holds deep emotional significance: the inaugural India Alexus McLaurin Scholarship Foundation Gala. Scheduled for Saturday, September 14, 2024, at 6:30 PM, this gala will be held at The Ballroom at Whimsical, located at 314 S Poplar St.
Announced by Rodney Maurice Williams on social media, the event aims to honor the memory of India Alexus McLaurin, a beloved member of the community who passed away too soon. Williams expressed his excitement and emotional connection to the event, stating, “Excited to announce this special event to honor the life of someone we lost way too soon, that I loved very dearly – India Alexus McLaurin.”
The gala is not only a tribute to India’s life but also a means to support future generations through the India Alexus McLaurin Nursing Scholarship Foundation.
