In honor of Women’s History Month, we are commemorating prominent female figures’ achievements as well as their importance. First, we have Buffalo’s own, Beverly R. Gray✨.

Ms. Gray was a local entrepreneur in her community. She founded a daycare center called The Ujama Family Day Care. Also was an originator of local support groups for black women who have breast cancer🙏🏿.

She was also elected as Council member at large for the City of Buffalo. She was recognized for her natural ability to plan, develop, and implement projects.

A miraculous leader and caring person. Today, we honer the late Beverly Gray🖤.

"It's the first conference title for our men's program in 34 years, and it feels amazing," said Nicholas Askew, coach of Howard's swimming and diving team.
