National Coalition of 100 Black Women

It is truly an honor to welcome you to the website of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Chattanooga Chapter, Incorporated.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have been elected President and represent our incredible organization. I am deeply honored and thank each one of my Sisters for their support, guidance and faith.

The mission of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Incorporated is to “Advocate on behalf of Black women and girls to promote leadership development and gender equity in the areas of health education and economic empowerment.” I firmly believe our chapter serves the community exceptionally well in carrying forth the mission of the organization.

The Chattanooga Chapter is comprised of professional women who do important work in the areas of community involvement, fundraising to support our “Reach to the Future” Scholarship program, public policy awareness, health initiatives and keeping abreast of current technology. It is my hope you are as enthusiastic as I am as to the continued positive impact we can all make “together” in 2021 – 2023.

As we continue our advocacy work on behalf of black women and girls on the local and national levels, I invite you to visit our website often for exciting information regarding our scheduled programs.

With warmest regards,
“Liz”
