“What I love about CLS! Who wouldn’t want to be apart of an organization with the heart to give back! The selfless acts of kindness, community service, sisterhood bonding, entrepreneurial support, and the flyest founder and CEO! All while having fun!! I’m honored to be apart of this movement!”

Maureen Kemp

“I joined CLS because I love anything that gives back to the community. BUT, this group impressed me by its ability to incorporate such a large group of successful women to come together for various communities. AND, not only does it support the community, it provides a platform for businesses within the group. Sisters encouraging sisters. The world needs more of this. I am so excited for the expansion of this group. CLS is going to takeover!!!”

Monica Fowlkes

“I love being able to make a difference in this world. This organization not only gives me the opportunity to do so but it also gives me the opportunity to bond with so many beautiful positive women. “

R Mona Turenne

“I joined right away at my first RDG 2016 (in my head). I really wanted to join that day but was afraid to commit due to other obligations. I didn’t want to join and not be able to fulfill my obligations to the organization. I was sold by the website, the event and the love for one another that I felt in the room at the Gala. I felt this also from women that I met there. After five months watching, talking about it and keeping up with up coming events. I sign up five months later at one of CLS event. I’ve learned a lot and still learning. I’m loving every minute of it. Thanks LaShanda Pitts Founder!!”

Terri Carithers

“I joined CLS because I had a desire to serve my community and to make a difference all while creating new Sisterhood bonds with like-minded ladies. I was impressed with the diversity of volunteer opportunities that were available and so impressed with the genuine love I have been shown from day one. Love my CLS family.”

Cheryl Kirby-Simmons

“I joined CLS to get more involved in the community. CLS gives so many opportunities to make a difference in people’s lives whether it is directly or indirectly. I’m working towards a greater good and it’s such an amazing and rewarding feeling.”

Alia Thompson

“I was first acquainted with CLS at the 2015 RDG…I was blown away by the genuine welcome, the mutual hearts for service and the spirit of sisterhood that engulfed the room. I joined for these reasons, but more importantly because I’d found an organization that fulfilled my desire to help those that are overlooked, neglected and misunderstood.”
