On Memorial Day, we reflect, honor and remember those who sacrificed their lives for their country. Let us also remember those who continue to deal with the challenges from war, service on the battlefield and other issues after returning home. If you know someone struggling, please extend your help and remember some battles continue long after the war is over.

Thank you for your service.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and it’s a reminder that our mental health and well-being deserve attention. Chronic stress can lead to depression, heart disease, anxiety and affect our physical health. When we reduce or remove stress in our lives, we improve sleep, lower our blood pressure and move through life with clarity and purpose.

Take time each day to improve your mental health and reap the rewards. Small changes can make a BIG difference.
💚 Move your body every day – dance, walk or take a yoga class.
💚 Meditate, pray or take a few minutes for quiet reflection.
💚Call a friend to catch up or participate in a volunteer activity.
💚Rest and unplug from your devices.

Remember to care for yourself the way you care for everyone else.

We packed 355 “Power Packs” of non-perishable food and snacks for students attending Hornets Nest Elementary School for our CHIPP (Childhood Hunger Initiative Power Pack) service project. As our Sorority’s most ambitious childhood hunger program, our efforts provide weekend and holiday meals to bridge the gap for children that depend on school meals.

Thanks to our chapter members who volunteered for our final packing event. Special thanks to our Sisters Yulonda Burris and Whitney Collins, who serve as co-chairmen for this chapter initiative, for your leadership to help us address childhood hunger in our community.

To the ones who show up and pour into us.

To the ones we lean on and go to when we need comfort, guidance and quiet strength.

To the ones we mourn and deeply miss.

On this special day, we honor the unconditional love, strength, commitment, unwavering devotion and sacrifices of our mothers, mother figures or those we’ve encountered along our journey. Today is also a time to hold space for our Heavenly Mothers who are no longer with us, but their presence is always felt.

Today, we celebrate mothers everywhere. Your relentless love, support, and sacrifices do not go unnoticed. Happy Mother’s Day.
