Pamper Party in Honor of Women’s History Month

On Saturday, March 23rd, we had the honor of hosting a transformative event in partnership with Talented Tenth Services—a Pamper Party dedicated to celebrating and uplifting women in recognition of Women’s History Month. This special gathering provided a much-needed opportunity for women to relax, unwind, and prioritize their well-being in a supportive and rejuvenating environment.

Attendees enjoyed moments of self-care and reflection, reinforcing the importance of taking time for themselves amidst life’s daily demands. Our President delivered an inspiring talk, emphasizing the critical role of self-care in personal and professional success, encouraging women to not only show up for others but to show up for themselves—physically, mentally, and emotionally. This event was more than just a celebration; it was a call to action for women to prioritize their health, happiness, and self-worth.

Transform your revenue-generating, social responsibility, and procurement efforts into a powerful force for social change. Support our efforts to give more underserved individuals and re-entry citizens a second-chance at entrepreneurship.
