In 2017, the Smith Family Foundation had its first inaugural “This is my Trenton Stars Awards”. Each year, we celebrate Trentonians that that have committed their work to empowering Trenton and have excelled in their career of choice. We also celebrate small business owners who have become staples in Trenton and support the community through their philanthropic endeavors.
While we’re having a night full of fun and entertainment, we are also raising funds to fight one of the disparities that plague our city the lack of funds to help students pursue their dream of higher education. The Trenton Stars Awards is our Annual fundraising event, ALL funds raised go to programming and #IAMTHECHANGE Scholarships promoting Higher Education as the Normal Next Step for Trenton Youth.
