Cleopatra Jones Day - A Worldwide Initiative

The Cleopatra Jones Crusade, Inc. was created to honor the memory of Cleopatra Jones, a civil rights leader, and her crusade to make positive CHANGES in the community. Mrs. Jones was an activist in the pure sense of the word. She stood against injustice and poverty issues within the Westchester County community and worked with many politicians to promote change. 

June 11th is the day the Westchester County Board of Legislators choose as Cleopatra Jones Day in Westchester County, New York. It is a day to honor Mrs. Cleopatra Jones for her many contributions and her 50 years of service to the community.  The Crusade is a movement to follow the legacy of Cleopatra Jones by volunteering in the community and promote different events to celebrate our individuality. This year The Cleopatra Jones Crusade will be campaigning for volunteerism all over the world on June 11th.

In Atlanta, Georgia some volunteers will work at Salvation Army Red Shield on Luckie Street from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm at a meet, greet,and eat with the homeless. During this time it is the planners hope that we both volunteers and clients alike will engage in conversation to learn from one another. If you are in the Atlanta area and cannot find a place to volunteer, come and join us..... we would love to have you!
