The Links, Incorporated, is an exclusive non-profit organization based upon the ideals of combining friendship and community service. The organization was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on November 9, 1946, as a women’s volunteer service organization committed to enriching, sustaining and ensuring the cultural and economic survival of people of Black African ancestry. The Links, Incorporated, consists primarily of professional African-American women in 299 chapters in 41 states, the District of Columbia, the United Kingdom, and the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. Membership is extended to candidates nominated and approved by Links members. Collectively, this organization of more than 17,000 dedicated leaders and stewards of service annually completes 500,000+ validated volunteer hours. The South Suburban Chicago (IL) Chapter, organized in 1976, is a part of the Central Area and is one of the nine chapters in the Chicago Area Cluster. Led by President Faye Terrell-Perkins, the Chapter celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2021. The chapter creates transformational programming and impacts lives in Chicago Southland communities of color through five facets: The Arts, Health & Human Services, International Trends & Services, National Trends & Services, and Services to Youth.

With sadness, we announce a break in our golden chain of friendship with the transition of our beloved South Suburban Chicago -IL - Chapter of The Links, Incorporated Charter Member Marilyn Epps. Though Marilyn had attained Platinum status with The Links, Incorporated, she remained an active member until her passing, and we were blessed with her presence at our 50th Anniversary Gala in June. Please keep Marilyn's family, friends, and all who loved and cared for her in your thoughts and prayers. 💚🔗🤍💔

We little knew that day God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly; in death, we do the same.
It breaks our hearts to lose you but you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you the day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories. Your love is still our guide.
And although we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our friendship chain is broken and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one, our chain will link again.
