Whereas, the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc.

Whereas, the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., Columbia (SC) Chapter's Interest Group was convened by Mary Miller McClellan on February 25, 2012, on the campus of Benedict College. From its inception, Mary, a former member of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., Long Island (NY) Chapter, believed that the dynamic group of women whom she had invited to join her would embrace the vision and mission of this national organization; and

 

Whereas, subsequent to completing extensive training in chapter development, the new chapter was chartered by National President Michelle McNeil Emery and the NCBW, Inc., affiliates from the New York City corporate office at the Columbia (SC) Marriott on Saturday, March 29, 2014; and

 

Whereas, the vision of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., is to see Black women and girls live in a world where socioeconomic inequity does not exist. NCBW's purpose is to foster the principles of equal rights and opportunities; and

 

Whereas, to achieve this purpose, the organization seeks to promote an awareness of Black culture, develop the potential of the membership for effective leadership and participation in civic affairs, take action on specific issues of national and international importance, and cooperate with other people and organizations to achieve mutual goals; and

 

Whereas, the House is pleased to pause in its deliberations to celebrate the accomplishments of this dedicated organization. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the achievements of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc., Columbia (SC) Chapter.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Columbia (SC) Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc.
