To our Community: March is here and though the cold weather is hanging on, we have also had some beautiful warm days. There is still a chance we we may have freezing weather since Easter is still a month away.
I am, however, looking forward for spring. The season bring us joy that we survived winter with snow. And don’t look now, but the pollen is here. It is a contrast with the white flowers on the trees and the yellow pollen is all around. Have a great week! ***** To everyone that is supporting Session Hill Community Center: We still need your support and anyone who would like to help us finish the flooring renovation, we thank you in advance.

It’s the official site for taking the cause further when you feel you’ve been wronged, or you want to work toward changes that may help the cause. We all have different situations where we need assistance from leadership. We understand everyone doesn’t agree with what the NAACP goes for, but they’re striving to bring change by helping many people. We’re living beneath our privileges and God given rights of life. We have a right to receive the best that life can offer. My question is, are you really receiving what you deserve in life? Help us to help you by joining the local Pierce County NAACP Chapter 5227B.
