***** The Pierce County NAACP Chapter 5227B is a local organization we are striving to put back into local action. It’s a civil rights organization that’s willing to help those who need help. It’s the official site for taking the cause further when you feel that you’ve been wronged, or you want to work toward changes that may help the cause or causes. We all have different situations where we need assistance from leadership. We understand that 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 our 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. We need you to help us to help you by joining to be a member of the local Pierce County NAACP is Chapter 5227B. When we’re faced with opposition, the NAACP is there to help assist on your behalf. Will you help us by joining to be a member for $30 a year. Being a member doesn’t mean you must work, but possessions will be available soon.
