Celebrating Black History Month: getting to know Zambia & Mazzy!

As we celebrate Black History month, we thought it might be a great idea to get to know Zambia where we have been contemplating to visit our international Rotary projects as well as one of the 7 wonders of the world: the Victoria Falls.

About Mazzy Chirwa:

Zambia also happens to be the country where club President Elitas Mazhyanga Chirwa “Mazzy” was born. Mazzy joined our club in April 2014. She was a Speaker Chair and a Co- Club Services Director before rising to the ranks of club President. Mazzy is a naturalized US Citizen. She has a 30-year-old daughter (an only child) who lives in Las Vegas, NV. Mazzy came to the US at the invitation of CNN, the Ted Turner owned the TV network. Mazzy had work as a TV Journalist in Africa close to 10 years before migrating to the US.

Mazzy has a master’s degree in Marriage, Child and Family Mental Health Therapy/Counseling. In her practice, she has worked with LGBTQ clients with a focus on trans-gender clients. She has also worked with juvenile sex offenders, substance abuse clients, and in relational therapy; she has worked with cis gender (straight), gay, polygamous, and polyamorous couples.  She has a TV show that she plans to get back to after June… when she is no longer club President.

What is Julie's Purse Project?

Julie's Purse Project is a public charity that collects purses and essential items to fill them and donates them to local organizations that assist homeless woman, domestic violence and sex trafficking survivors.

It is a passion project that Julie Nakayama started in the fall of 2015 and now a newly formed 501c3 nonprofit organization. The initial mission was to give back to those in need during the holidays.  It has since grown into a year round non profit organization collecting new and gently used purses and filling the purses with essential items that a woman would want or need in their purses if they were starting over with nothing.

NOTE: Donations of gently used purses, small soaps, shampoos, etc. are appriciated.  Please bring them to the meeting.
