The Still Thankful Festival — A Day of Gratitude, Giving, and Community Connection

TAMPA, Fla. - EntSun -- Artist, activist, and community leader Imari Sekajipo proudly announces the Still Thankful Festival, a transformative celebration of gratitude and giving back, taking place Friday, November 29, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Perry Harvey Sr. Park (1000 E. Harrison St., Tampa, FL).

Sekajipo shares, "To me, the event is already successful because people have come together for a cause outside of themselves and unified to do that. That's a win already to me."

Born from Sekajipo's own journey of resilience, Still Thankful is powered by the More Income More Impact Foundation, which he describes as a vehicle for "purpose-driven service rather than profit." The event reimagines the meaning of celebration—replacing consumerism with community.

"For too long, we've just gone along with the program and bought into certain holidays that were based more on the idea of consumerism than substance," Sekajipo explains. "I feel like this event can change that narrative and allow us to take power back into our lives by deciding what we want to make a holiday, what we want to champion."

The festival's guiding principles—gratitude, love, and service—shape every element of its programming. One of the highlights, Resource Row, will feature local nonprofits, service organizations, and impact-driven brands offering resources, guidance, and opportunities to connect.

"I think the awareness of these organizations in their resources is a big thing," Sekajipo says. "I really want people to get connected to and then we want people to smile and enjoy their day and remember that regardless of what they're going through, they have something to still be thankful for."

Local vendors and small businesses will also play a key role. "I think stimulating the local economy is important," he says. "But the balance also comes into where all of the vendors are giving in some sort of way—the food vendors are agreeing to get food at a certain price, and the small business vendors will be donating towards the raffles."

Looking ahead, Sekajipo envisions Still Thankful expanding nationwide. "We're already planning next year's event," he says. "I think this is something that should grow—even be a cultural holiday. I hope that this event inspires people to connect, build community, and spread love."
