Every year during Women’s History Month, Muslim Women’s Alliance (MWA) shines a spotlight on Chicago area women who have contributed significantly in giving back to the community, been a positive role model, and fostered a commitment to helping others. This year, MWA will honor two CIOGC alumni, Ahlam Jbara and Dr. Bambade Shakoor-Abdullah at their Annual Expo on Sunday, March 19.
