NCNWGOS announces the launch of its Membership Drive on December 10, 11:30am – 1:30pm at the Orange County Library Hiawassee Branch, 7391 W. Colonial Dr. Orlando, FL 32818.

The National Council of Negro Women was founded in 1935 by Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune, as a national organization for all women with a focus of “Unity of Purpose and a Unity of Action.” The Greater Orlando Section was founded in 2008 with the specific mission to advocate activities to aid and promote the plight of women in Orange, Osceola, & Seminole counties by introducing programs focusing on Health, Education, Economic Empowerment, and Youth initiatives.

This year the organization has hosted a variety of events for the public in support of their programs. Signature events this year include the 3rd Annual National Women & Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day High Tea & Luncheon; 90-Day Get Fit Challenge; Education Straight Talk Series: Educating Our Youth for Greatness; and Economic Empowerment’s Work Your Business Plan among others.

“NCNWGOS provides a multitude of opportunities for service and volunteerism within the Greater Orlando area,” said Donesha Anthony, Chair of Membership. “We look forward to achieving greater heights of success by making a positive difference in the community through our pursuit of excellence.”

NCNW offers differing levels of membership beginning with student membership at $10 and ranging through life membership packages. All memberships include invitations to and participation in all group activities, and free subscription to the national quarterly print newsletter offering professional advice and tips on health, education, and economic empowerment.
