Friends Transforming Communities Through Service

Prayers for Spokane 💚🙏

Please join the Western Area in keeping our Link Sisters in Spokane, their families, and the entire community in your prayers as they recover from the devastating wildfires impacting Washington.

While we are grateful that all Spokane Chapter members are safe and no homes of our Link Sisters have been lost, many friends, neighbors, colleagues, and community members have been displaced, with hundreds of homes destroyed. We stand in solidarity with all those affected and are grateful to the Spokane Chapter for partnering with community organizations to support relief and recovery efforts.

In times like these, the strength of friendship, service, and compassion reminds us that we are truly Linked in Friendship, Connected in Service.

Please continue to lift everyone impacted in your thoughts and prayers. 💚

August is National Black Business Month! 🖤❤️💛💚

This month, we proudly celebrate the innovation, resilience, and economic impact of Black entrepreneurs who continue to strengthen our communities and shape the future.

Established in 2004 by John William Templeton and Frederick E. Jordan Sr., National Black Business Month recognizes the more than 3.1 million Black-owned businesses across the United States that generate over $200 billion in annual revenue. We also celebrate the remarkable growth of Black women-owned businesses, whose leadership continues to drive entrepreneurship, create jobs, and expand opportunities nationwide.

Every purchase is an investment in dreams, families, and communities. Join us in supporting Black-owned businesses—not just this month, but throughout the year.

Shop Black. Support Black. Build Black. Together, We Thrive!

Today, we pause to remember the 23 lives lost 7 years ago on August 3, 2019.

We honor their memories, stand with the families forever impacted, and reaffirm our commitment to compassion, unity, and love. May we continue to build a community where kindness triumphs over hate.

🕊️ Forever in our hearts.

Cheers to another year of fun, love and happiness 💚🤍 Happy Birthday to our chapter member Avemaria Smart!
