OUR HISTORY:In 2001, ten women decided to meet after their weekly women’s meeting and continue to network and support each other.  This weekly Saturday meeting evolved into a remarkable circle of SISTAHOOD, that developed a food program, provided money to women for school, childcare swap, educational, professional, and spiritual mentoring and a way socialize with a purpose. All of this was accomplished with the funds from the women’s pocket.

In 2007,  they formed the non-profit organization to further their efforts on a larger scale through networking, community forums, workshops, and social events that provide opportunities for women to reach their greatest level of success for their lives and families. Making the community a much better place for us all.

OUR MISSION: To develop, implement and sponsor encouraging critical dialogues, conferences, and projects devoted to enhancing and improving on the life skills of Black African American women and their families that enhance and improve their life strategies to achieve success.
