On June 15, 2013, Face2face Africa will host its second annual F.A.C.E. List Awards, generously sponsored by State Farm and Arik Airlines, where six pan-African Movers and Shakers will be honored for their commitment to excellence.
As an organization devoted to being “The Voice” of the emergent generation of African descendants, Face2face Africa established The F.A.C.E. List Awards in 2011 as a platform to acknowledge, celebrate, and honor the outstanding achievements of Africans and friends of Africa who are contributing towards a more dynamic and advanced global community.

The award ceremony is a red carpet black-tie benefit event where a portion of the proceeds will be donated to this year’s beneficiary, Raising HOPE Foundation for their work with orphans and disadvantaged children in Africa.
