Message From the President
Happy New Year! As we step into 2026, I am filled with optimism for the journey ahead. This year, we are intentional about creating meaningful connections and growth within our SE & SW Washington, DC community.
A new partnership with Anacostia High School under our sorority’s Uplift Our Local Community initiative brings new opportunities and resources. The Ladies F.I.R.S.T. Girls Empowerment program provides mentorship and support to young women. A special thank you to the Anacostia Coordinating Council (ACC) for providing our chapter’s foundation with a grant to expand our outreach and programming. Much gratitude goes out to all of our partners for trusting us and collaborating on our mission to serve all mankind. Our prayer is that this new year brings renewed strength for our community and chapter members.
Let’s make 2026 our best year yet!
