Milwaukee Alumnae Chapter, Physical and Mental Health Committee continued its rich tradition,
Intergenerational Women’s Day at Epikos Church on Saturday, 03/29/2025.
This year’s theme was “Working on Wellness: Women & Girls Mental Health Empowerment.” The keynote speaker was our very own soror and clinical psychologist, Dr. Angelique W. Lewis. The community expressed a preference for a full-day event, which we honored. There were workshops, medical screenings, memory testing, a food demonstration, paint and sip, and back by proper demand, Laughing Yoga. Breakfast and lunch were catered, Delectables by Donna. 80-plus women were in attendance.
We, of course, didn’t forget service, hygiene, and grooming products were collected. Meals were also provided to Safe Streets. Many thanks to Pastor Anthony Caples and wife/soror Linda Caples for their hospitality and partnership! We ended the day with line dancing, which was enjoyed by both the community and sorors. Thanks to the community for their continued engagement and support!
