Supermarket Sweep

It’s that time of year again! NAPW NYC Local Chapter President Louise Newsome and her team hosted their third annual ‘Supermarket Sweep’ to support the Bowery Mission’s Women’s Centers. Members were divided up into teams to sweep the aisles of Duane Reade. They purchased various products and donated them all to The Bowery Mission. Back at the National Urban League, the team led a development workshop to review what valuable skills they used and learned through this challenge, and announced the winning team.

UPCOMING IN DECEMBER

Holiday Giving at NAPW
Happiness, joy and charitable giving reign supreme during the holidays. It’s a great time to remember those less fortunate and give back to make a difference in the lives of others. Remember while we’re all busy shopping and preparing for the holidays, there are many people who think the holidays are a sad, lonely time of the year. Any small act of kindness or generosity goes a long way to help those in need.
