Schneps Media's Brooklyn Power List event took center stage on December 5, celebrating the influential individuals who have shaped the borough's landscape. The honorees, including our very own Director of Community Relations, Monica Holowacz, were nominated not only their individual successes, but also their collective strength that defines Brooklyn.

The event, hosted by Schneps Media, renowned publishers of The Brooklyn Paper, El Correo, Caribbean Life, and amnyMetro, went beyond a mere acknowledgment of achievements. It served as a powerful platform for forging connections, fostering collaboration, and building a community that continues to thrive beyond the event's conclusion. This gathering emphasized the enduring importance of community-building in Brooklyn's ever-evolving landscape. Beyond an annual celebration, the event is a testament to the commitment of our community - working together to ensure Brooklyn remains a powerhouse of culture, innovation, and community resilience.

Congratulations to all the honorees and a special shout out to Debbie Hootam, Apple Bank, Monika Nowicka, Apple Bank, and Kendall Charter, Greenpoint YMCA;  our sincere thanks for your collective leadership and commitment to community.
