It's time to celebrate Ms. Choice's 80th Birthday Extravaganza & Choice Connoisseur of the Arts Scholarship Fundraiser! Mable Jimi Choice, a Stockton icon, is celebrating her 80th birthday with a scholarship dinner for Stockton students on January 28th, 2017 at the Victory In Praise Event Center at 2029 East Harding Way in Stockton, California. The elegant event will highlight Ms. Choices contributions to the Stockton community and raise funds to support the long-running Choice Connoisseur of the Arts Scholarship.
Ms. Choice is the philanthropist behind the Choice Connoisseur of the Arts Award, the annual scholarship dedicated to worthy artistic and musically talented Stockton youth. The scholarship is usually funded by Ms. Choices self-published CD and book of poetry, Beyond the ABCs and the XYZs is LIFE! Her latest poetry book is set to be released at this event. Dinner will feature soul food cuisine with available vegetarian options. Raffles and entertainment will round out the evening. Donations are $30.00 for adults, $20.00 for youth aged 5-12.

Ms. Choice has served the Stockton community as an educator, youth activist, community pioneer and artist for 54 years. She has touched countless lives and improved the lot of thousands as a counselor during her 37 years as a teacher and counselor with Stockton Unified School District.
