Constance Jones Speaks at Morning Glory-1000 Women in Prayer & Pink

I was honored to serve as a guest speaker at Dr. Rosalind Osgood's 5th Anniversary Morning Glory: 1000 Women in Prayer and Pink 2014. It was a time to join together to pray for the female leadership in South Florida.

The focus of this event was empowering women! There were a number of influential ladies in attendance including Broward County Mayor Barbara Sharief. She is the first Black female Mayor of Broward County.  

Go Pink- Take the Pledge!

Go Pink! ABC News & WPLG Local 10 News is going PINK during the month of October! The purpose is to shed light on breast cancer. Here's a look at our promotional commercial.

 For me, it's a personal mission. I lost my Grandma Lela to breast cancer years ago. She was the glue that held the Jones family together—until she lost her battle with breast cancer.

 It was very taboo to talk about Breast Cancer back in 1976. When they found the cancer in my Grandmother it was too late! According to the National Cancer Institute, black women are twice as likely to die of breast cancer compared to white women. The problem is that when the cancer is finally diagnosed it often in its late stages.

That's why I took the Go Pink Challenge!  Arm yourself with facts about breast cancer--and take the pledge to know your risk.

St. Jude Trike-A-Thon Miami

Riding Her Trike for St. Jude

It's a ride that teaches children about the importance of helping others- all while having fun! St. Jude is hosting a Trike-A-Thon in Miami this Friday! My dear friend Christina Boomer Vazquez's daughter will participate in the ride!  Little Mina will be riding her tricycle, while raising money for her cousin-- 9 year old Asa who battled melanoma.

 No matter what the color-- Melanoma can affect children of all shades!  The disease is more frequently associated with Caucasian adults-- but the cancer also effects kids.

Melanoma occurs so rarely in young children that pediatricians may miss it during routine checkups. That's what happened to Asa!
