Ashley Stewart stores have teamed with the National Council of Negro Women to begin an initiative that fosters mentorships between African American women and girls, reports BlackEnterprise.com.
Every Tuesday, in all 217 Ashley Stewart stores nationwide, black women and girls join together to discuss topics ranging from domestic violence to education and cancer prevention.
Dorothy L. Height, 96, president emeritus of the NCNW, says she cherished her mentor, civil rights activist Mary McLeod Bethune, and believes black girls can benefit from mentorship.
