Butcha's 40for40 Celebration

Brian "Butcha" Williams with LIAH Entertainment will be celebrating his 40th birthday and for years he had dedicated immeasurable time and effort to assist students from the ages of 7 to college graduates in achieving their dreams and succeeding.

He now works for the University of South Florida where he counsels first generation/low-income students and mentors young minority males. Because the program he works for is grant funded, there are no other funds that can be allocated for scholarships. He feels this is an opportunity to help.

After many of his colleagues urged him to finally do something for himself, Brian has finally decided to take their advice. Now that he's about to turn 40, he wants to celebrate but his main focus is to raise scholarship money for the students he works with. In February, we will be celebrating with hopes to raise $12,000 which will allow us to provide scholarships for students from marginalized backgrounds to continue their education and become future graduates of the preeminent University of South Florida.

The event will be invite only and celebrated on a yacht in the Tampa Bay area. The population will consist of Tampa Bay professionals from lawyers, those in higher education, those in banking, etc.

During these tough emotional and financial times, he feels this is the perfect opportunity to help those from marginalized backgrounds.
