We just want to take a heartfelt moment to celebrate Sharon Strickland’s birthday! 🎉 Sharon is truly the unsung hero for all of us at the Urban League of Greater Cleveland.
She’s not only been Miss Marsha’s right hand but also a constant support to all of us in the YP community. From being our liaison to solving problems on the spot, Sharon makes it possible for us to keep fighting the good fight—Defending democracy, Demanding diversity, and Defeating poverty.

Happiest of birthdays, Sharon! We’re so grateful for you today and every day.

📚 Last week’s Back to School Drive was a huge success! We’re proud to have been part of an incredible effort where 500 school supplies were given away, thanks to the leadership of our CEO Marsha Mockabee and the support of Pastor Prince’s Assembly Baptist Church. Big shoutout to our amazing volunteers who held it down!

On top of that, dozens of voter verifications were completed as part of our Reclaim Your Vote initiative, spearheaded by our CEO. Together, we’re making a difference! 💪🏽
