It is with great pride and joy that I invite you to join us for the Chartering and Installation Celebration of the North Shore Section of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW). This event marks the official launch of our section and reflects a shared commitment to service, sisterhood, and community.
We’re proud to join NCNW’s powerful national legacy and bring that mission home to the North Shore. This celebration is not just about a moment—it’s about a movement. We welcome our friends, family, and community to witness this milestone and stand with us as we begin this journey.
Together, we are building something lasting, something meaningful—history in the making—on the North Shore, for the North Shore.
With gratitude,
