The members of Les Gemmes, Incorporated, Washington, D. C. Chapter joined the ladies of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated, Omicron Phi Zeta Chapter in their "Making Strides for Breast Cancer Awareness Walk/Run and Resource Fair”. Once again, we walked in support of one of our Special Gemmes who is also a member of the Omicron Phi Zeta Chapter. The walk/fair was held in partnership with The New Macedonia Baptist Church where they also set up a tent where you could get your COVID shots and boosters. The rain clouds were hoovering, but the rain held off until we finish the walk. A good time was held by all!
