Sisters Supporting Sisters and Meme Kelly Present VOICES OF THE UN-HEARD, 7/6

Sisters Supporting Sisters (S3), a 501 (c) (3), and Meme Kelly present Voices of the Un-Heard, a play with powerful monologues, entertaining dance, and inspiring music that celebrates the human spirit's ability to get up after being knocked down! Voices will be offered at the Barnsdall Gallery Theater on Saturday, July 6th at 4 p.m.

It will unleash the Power Up Movement, feeding people personal power, that Meme hopes will move across the United States. Over 100 non-profits are invited to attend.

The star of Voices is gospel and R&B star Brenda Lee Eager who has written for and performed with Ray Charles, Prince, to Aretha Franklin, and more. Brenda is supported by a wonderful cast of young new artists, including a disabled actress.

About the founder of Sisters Supporting Sisters: Meme Kelly, a graduate of UCLA, and mother of three sons, founded the organization in 1998 while teaching elementary school in Watts. The first S3 seminar was held at the Crenshaw mall featuring a renowned psychologist who shared tools to deal with stress. Thereafter clothes, computers, and books were donated to families at Russell Elementary.
This past December, S3 conducted another drive and items were donated to A New Way of Life Transitional Shelter and Penny Lane Foster Care in the San Fernando Valley, as well as to single mothers who were clients of Great Beginnings for Black Babies, foster teens clients of Her-She non-profit, and to families with disabled family members. For several years, S3 also held a writer's group at Windsor Hills Elementary based on the principals of SHOUT (Succeed, Have Hope, Overcome, Use Your Power and Take Charge) and SHOUT Seminars for at-risk youth and women at shelters, non-profits, and private facilities.

S3 also does phone and letter writing campaigns to encourage private businesses and government agencies to increase mainstream activities for the disabled. Check out www.wearegreattoo.blogspot.com. S3 also held a mainstream job fair at the Help Group in 2000. Meme is the mother of a 28 year old Autistic young man and supporting him and those similarly situated fuels her passion to bring voice to the challenges faced by the disabled community.
