Is the headquarters paid off?
Seven Pearls Foundation paid off 1000 Southhill Dr. two years ahead of schedule. This remarkable achievement reflects financial discipline, strategic planning, and unwavering commitment. All qualities that will continue to drive the foundation's success and shape its future endeavors. What is Seven Pearls Foundation, and is it a membership-based organization? Seven Pearls Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to developing and executing transformative programs with a focus on education, leadership, and community service. Rooted in the vision of the Seven Pearls, the brave women who founded a global education organization, the Foundation empowers women and girls to create change and uplift others through "Crowning Efforts with Success." While the Foundation is not a membership-based organization, it advances its mission through strategic initiatives and partnerships to support women and the broader communities they serve. Who leads the Seven Pearls Foundation? The Foundation is led by a dedicated Board of Directors composed of dynamic women joined through a dedicated sisterhood. The Board includes the President & CEO, Sergeant-at-Arms, Legal Counsel and Treasurer, as well as regional representatives from a global community organization. In addition, the Foundation has established an impressive advisory board with expertise in board governance, providing valuable insights and support to ensure effective leadership and strategic direction. What major project has the Foundation completed and why was it a priority? Seven Pearls Foundation’s greatest achievement to date is the successful acquisition and transformation of the 1000 Southhill Dr. property in Cary, NC. This was no small feat as it required careful planning, substantial resources, and the unwavering commitment of supporters and external donors. The project was a priority because the sorority voted to establish the foundation with this specific initiative in mind. As we move into the next phase of our commitment to our communities, the foundation remains committed to pursuing similarly transformative projects that honor the legacy of the Seven of '1922' and create lasting, meaningful change. |
