Mona Adams Winston is a
very proud African American woman who has dedicated her
life in the most selfless way to improving our
community. She is a dedicated daughter, sister, mother,

She is currently one of the busiest and hard working
retired people in this community as she is working part
time in the Agency Services Department of Second Harvest
Foodbank, and is an Outreach and Special Events
Consultant. She also found time to work on a local team
for the Barack Obama for President Campaign.
Mona has provided significant leadership on improving
race relations in our community through her outstanding
work in the City of Madison Study Circles on Race. She
extended her commitment beyond what was expected as the
project coordinator, spending time with participants in
off hours as they met in informal groups to fulfill the
dream envisioned in Study Circles, of people from
diverse races spending their time together learning
about and enjoying each other. But, Mona’s work doesn’t
stop here.
Mona is Co-Chair of Kujichagulia-Madison Center for
Self-Determination, Inc. and also one of the founding
members of Madison’s Juneteenth Celebration that has

of Directors for the National Juneteenth Day held each
year on June 19th in Washington D.C., which includes
working towards making Juneteenth a national holiday.
She is also currently Co-Chair of the City-County Martin
Luther King Celebration. Mona serves on several local
boards; they include serving as Vice Chair of the Monona
Terrace Community and Convention Center, Future Madison
Housing Fund, and as a member-at-large of Dane Dances!.
She also serves on several committees; they include
Diversity and Inclusiveness for United Way of Dane
County, Affirmative Action Advisory for Madison
Metropolitan Schools, Communities United, and South
Central Federation of Labor Community Service, Grants
for the Foundation for Madison Public Schools, and
Community Change Maker Awards.
