2023 Award Honorees
We cannot recognize the accomplishments of our Spelman sisters and extended Spelman community enough! Our highest honors and awards are presented at the Annual Scholarship Brunch, an event to raise money for the chapter’s scholarship fund. Each of our award honorees has demonstrated a commitment to service and has made an impact in their respective areas of expertise.
