About The 100 Women DBA

ABOUT

The 100 WOMEN DBA is the membership organization that supports the 100 Men Hall. The membership dues support the preservation and maintenance of 100 Men Hall and members support women and girls of color in the community through scholarships and mentorships. 

In sustaining the 100 Men Hall, the 100 WOMEN DBA is preserving a historical African American landmark and continuing its original mission to support community of color. By choosing to focus on women, the 100 WOMEN DBA reimagines the original 100 Men DBA that sought to help and heal a community through self-reliance and music.

The 100 WOMEN DBA acknowledges that no progress could have been made without the daily actions of countless unheralded women who make magic happen. To become a member contact Rachel at 100menhall@gmail.com or text 228.231.1920.
