First, we serve.
Before she ever stepped onto a college yard, Our International President and CEO, Charletta Wilson Jacks, was a little girl in an elementary school classroom - and yesterday, she went back. Returning to her own elementary school, she read with students and carried the heart of Target 1: Educational Support & Advocacy - advancing educational excellence and creating equitable pathways to learning, leadership, literacy, and lifelong achievement. Because promoting literacy and academic success from cradle to career starts exactly here: one classroom, one book, one child at a time.
And she’s not stopping at the schoolhouse door. Supreme on the Yard is taking that same message to HBCU campuses across the country - showing students that the sisterhood who taught them to read will cheer them all the way to graduation and beyond.
From the classroom to the yard - the lesson is the same. When our sisters lead, communities rise. 📚💗💚

Happy Sunday, Sisters and Friends! 🙏🏽
Welcome to this week’s Happy Happenings & Prayer Requests.
This Sunday, we are lifting our sisters in prayer who are experiencing the impacts of Hurricane Isaias, and those recovering from the impact of the earthquake in Panama. Our hearts are with every sister, family, and community navigating this storm’s aftermath — and with our sisterhood in Panama as you rebuild and recover.
Sisters, please check your email for an important message from our International President & CEO, Charletta Wilson Jacks, with guidance and support for members in affected areas. Safety resources, regional updates, and next steps are included there.
In the meantime: stay connected, check on our senior sisters, those living alone, and our collegiate members, and follow the guidance of local emergency management officials. A simple phone call or text can make a meaningful difference today.
Whether it was a blessing, a milestone, or just making it through the week — share your Happy Happening in the comments. And if you are carrying something heavy, lay it here. This sisterhood is a shelter. Take a moment to encourage the sister who shared before you.
