The North Shore Black Women’s Association Inc. would like to send our thanks and gratitude for all who have supported us over the years. It is with deep regret and sadness that we are unable to have our annual Martin Luther King Jr. luncheon this coming January 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Although we will not be able to have our luncheon, we encourage you to continue to check our website www.nsbwa.org. We will continue to grant scholarships and at a later date we will post the scholarship recipients. The NSBWA, Inc. has been immensely proud to provide students who want to continue with their education an opportunity to obtain additional funding.
