In 1991, Marjorie M. Brown, field director of marketing and communication in Miami, FL, developed the EACH ONE REACH ONE program. This mentorship program provides financial assistance to members seeking educational opportunities.
 

In 2004, Marjorie M. Brown, Postmaster, Atlanta, GA, developed the WOMEN ON THE MOVE program. This program is designed to profile leaders with high potential for increased responsibility and accountability in the postal service. It is open to EAS 19 and above NETWORK members currently prepared to move into EAS-22 through PCES positions.
 

In 2008, Debra Jones, Manager of Business Service Operations, developed THE DARE TO SOAR program, which is managed by Vinnie Malloy, District Manager/Postmaster, New York, NY. This program allows EAS 15-18 NETWORK members to demonstrate technical knowledge and the ability to manage people.
 

In 2013, Charisse I. Ingraham, HQ project manager, developed the Sister-Adopt-A-Sister (currently known as My Sister's Keeper) program. This program is designed to mentor, coach, and prepare our sisters to develop skills and abilities to help them reach the next level.
 

NETWORK yearly dues are $50. In 1985, the VIVIAN K. LOTT SCHOLARSHIP FUND was established in Nashville, TN. $5 of NETWORK dues supports this fund, which provides scholarships for cancer research and supports the United Negro Scholarship College Fund.

Lakeisha Koonce

NETWORK, an organization formed in 1984 by a group of postal women who knew then the power of the collective efforts of strong women. These individuals were determined to make a difference for other women within the Postal Service.


I am truly honored to lead this great organization. Together, we will continue to build leaders and uphold the legacy of NETWORK. As the NETWORK National Chairperson, I am committed to NETWORK's mission, empowering women to invest in themselves by developing their talents, skills, and abilities to flourish in their day-to-day lives and to make the Postal Service better. Together, through Direction, Alignment, and Commitment, we will change the culture.


We will continue to stand proud through the tenacity and resilience of those who blazed an indelible trail, and keep the proverb close to us, “Your gifts will open doors for you and bring you before great people.” However, you must use your gift for this proverb to be true.


Thank you all for your continued dedication to NETWORK’s mission and vision.


Truly,

Lakeisha Koonce

NETWORK National Chairperson
