THANK YOU for making our 2021 Action Maverick Awards a Success!
Last month, Elizabeth Streb honored Cynthia Nixon and Christine Marinoni as our 2021 Action Mavericks with our first-ever live streamed hybrid event! The evening was hosted by the hilarious Kate Clinton and featured daring performances by our Action Heroes. With the incredible leadership of our stellar board and event co-chairs Jacqueline Woodson, Toshi Widoff-Woodson, and Lynne Meadow the event raised over $200,000 to provide critical support for STREB and all of our programs.
