Happy Juneteenth, Sisters!

On this historic , we are celebrating with “Freedom and Finance.” And what better day to invest in Black economic liberation and financial freedom?

Today, we are putting our collective power behind Black-owned financial and professional services, including financial advisors, accountants, attorneys, consultants, and insurance agents.

During this administration, our Sisterhood has poured over $60 million into minority-owned businesses. Let that sink in! Today, let’s keep that legacy growing by spending at least $19.08 to secure our future and uplift our professional leaders.

Pull out your FMO Federal Credit Union™ debit card and let’s build our economic wealth, because that is exactly what Alpha Kappa Alpha® women do.

One last lunch before our summer hiatus! 💕💚

The Ivy Lunch Bunch gathered for another afternoon filled with laughter, fellowship, and sisterly connection. These ladies truly cherish the opportunity to come together each month, and today’s gathering was extra special as they welcomed our Madam President, Angela L. Williams, as an honorary Ivy Lunch Bunch member. 😍

They will be back in September to create more Ivy Lunch Bunch memories.

Madam President, Dr. Angela L. Williams was honored to attend and cohost the in person, monthly presidents’ meeting, ”The Power of the Pause”, an inspiring and empowering session featuring Dr. La Keita D. Carter.

The session encouraged attendees to embrace the importance of pausing with purpose, taking time to rest, reflect and rejuvenate in order to lead, serve and thrive more effectively.

Thank you, Dr. Carter, for reminding these amazing presidents that self-care is not a luxury but a necessity for sustainable leadership and personal well-being.

Madam President, Dr. Angela L. Williams was honored to participate in the Living Memorial Bench Dedication honoring Erma W. Barron, 27th North Atlantic Regional Director, on Friday, June 12, 2026.

This special tribute celebrated Living Legend Erma Barron’s enduring legacy of leadership, service and sisterhood, ensuring that her impact will continue to inspire generations to come.

Congratulations to Kristi L. Matthews, President, and the members of Iota Gamma Omega Chapter for hosting such a meaningful and heartfelt gathering.

Happy AKAversary ILO SPR21! Congratulations on FIVE years of Sisterhood and Service with a Smile. 😊💕💚

Today, we are showing up for ourselves and our community by intentionally supporting Black-owned beauty, wellness, and self-care businesses.

By supporting her business, Dieux Healistic, you’re helping to ensure that you and others have access to compassionate, culturally informed care that nurtures both body and spirit.
