The Cultivating Excellence Tour 2012 is part of a five-city tour promoting excellence in faith, finance, and physical fitness. Cocoagirls Productions & Triad Artist Group, two women-managed companies, have collaborated to present this event.

The tour will kick off on June 8 with a Ceremony at Irvington, Town Hall, 1 Civic Square Irvington, New Jersey, starting at 5:30 p.m. Ms. Stickney will be joined by Mayor Wayne Smith, attorney Lauren Raysor author of “Living the Wealthy Life” to announce the Honorees of the 2012 1st Ladies of Faith, Finance & Fitness. Among the honorees will be Adenah Bayoh, Owner, International House of Pancakes' Irvington franchise; Mercy Oni, Women's Coordinator, Deeper Life Bible Church; and Gail Gonzalez of Investors Bank.

The main program will take place June 9 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Essex County College at 303 University Avenue in Newark, New Jersey. The Ministers’ Roundtable will set the tone for the day. Panels such as Entrepreneurship in the 21st Century, and workshops addressing issues and topics including “Ruff Rev.” Jerry King’s Credit Repair and Pastor Norton’s Business Mentoring Businesses will fill the day’s calendar. Panelists include Reverend Curtis George Norton and Reverend Tina Pamela Norton; Jay-Sharee Allen, Founding Member, WEST (Women of Excellence, Strength & Tenacity), and Lucinda Cross, a local business leader.

At 8 p.m., Ms. Stickney will headline the Conscious Comedy Revue at the Christian Pentecostal Church of Christ at 971 Clinton Avenue in Irvington, New Jersey. The event will be hosted by Pastor Jerry Smith and Malikha Mallette, Radio Personality, “Power 105.” Tickets for the event are $30.00 with a portion of the ticket sales benefiting The Learning Tree Multicultural School in Corona, New York and Pastor Jerry Smith's Seed Time Outreach, a local non-profit organization.

The mission of the Cultivating Excellence Tour is to provide financial education and awareness, information about money management and hands-on skills that will allow future generations to have financial resources. The tour seeks to balance out the disparity in information and access to funding for female entrepreneurs and women in business. Cultivating Excellence desires women to be inspired and motivated to take positive action in controlling their lives to achieve maximum personal, financial and professional success for families and community. State Farm and Positive Community sponsors the event, which is also sponsored in part by Women of Excellence, Strength, & Tenacity and L.W.L., LLC.

“We are proud to kick off this five-city tour with the elected officials, business leaders and religious leaders to assist female entrepreneurs in empowering themselves and to even the playing field so that our lives can be better and our world includes us as valuable and viable variables in the global equation,” Ms. Stickney said. “I am grateful to be supported by Mayor Smith, Michelle Hare of State Farm, Essex County College administrative staff and Pastor Smith of the Eastern Bible Institute for this important weekend event.”
