We list the biographies of the following 12 women and acknowledge them as the Pearls of Inspiration for this organization.  Each of their lives and commitment to the education, health, wealth and welfare of the Black community has inspired the genesis of this organization.  The Black Pearl Society is a conduit for developing the gifts, talent and genius of Black women and channeling it motivating and supporting the leadership of Black women as we continue their legacy of love, hope and empowerment. They represent the “12 hands of our time”.
