NAACP Community Service Award

The vision of the NAACP states a commitment to a world where Black people enjoy equitable opportunities in thriving communities. The Felician Sisters at Felician Center serve ALL races, ALL nationalities, ALL faiths but primarily the Black community. The Black community is represented in all aspects of the Outreach Center as board members, committee members, volunteers and in leadership.
Jackie Hales, county councilwoman, nominated the Felician Sisters and Felician Center for the COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD that reads: “with our sincere appreciation, we hereby recognize the Felician Sisters for all of their selfless service and support shown and given to the citizens of Williamsburg County”. Because the Sisters were in Chicago at a community assembly, Deacon Harold Jackson from St. Ann Church accepted the award on September 14, 2024. The Sisters prepared remarks that included “thank you to Joe Castle, President of Williamsburg County NAACP, Jackie Hales and voting members of the NAACP who recognized our humble efforts to end structural racism through the Felician Center”
