Charms Receive Awards | Charlotte Chapter

Charm Mae Orr was honored with an International Excel- lence Service Award from the United Nations. She received the award from the National Association of Ne- gro Business and Profes- sional Women’s Clubs (NANBPWC), International Division, a United Nations Non- governmental Organ- izational (NGO), during a recent trip to New York City.

Orr was recognized for color- ful pillowcase dresses that were delivered to girls in war -torn Liberia. A neighbor gave her the idea. She pre- sented the idea to her church and members of the NANBPWC. Club members from North Carolina, Florida, Alabama, and Georgia joined her to put the dressed to- gether that were simply made from pillowcases and ribbon.
