More than 120 winter wear items were
presented to the children of Williams Magnet on Friday, December 12 to honor the
school’s namesake, Mamie Williams. Sorority members from the Alpha Iota Omega
chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha collected the items
to honor the memory of Mamie Williams, who- were she still alive- would have
celebrated her 120th birthday on December 12th. The sorority members donated the
hats, scarves and gloves, which were collected from their co-workers and members
of Antioch Baptist Church, as part of the sorority’s national initiative to
provide extra warmth to school children.
Thank you, ladies of Alpha Iota
Omega, for your generosity to the children of Williams Magnet!
