Funds have also gone to support ovarian cancer research, prevention, and education in our community. 
 “One Step assures survivors a community cares for them,” said Claudette Carlan, Chairman of the Celma Mastry Ovarian Cancer Foundation, created in her mother’s name to help women who were also suffering from this disease. “We get so many thank you notes from families we’ve been fortunate to help. Our greatest accomplishment has been to remain an all-volunteer foundation for more than 20 years and to give hope to the survivor who needs us.”

 
 Race results will be posted to the website and medals awarded immediately following the event on September 14, 2024.

Pinellas Genealogy Society at the Largo Public Library, 120 Central Park Drive, Meeting Room/Jenkins B,  Largo, FL  33771

11:00 am - 1:00 pm EST -&nbsp;Genealogy is the same the world around, yet there are some unique challenges when researching African American family history. For example, specific strategies are required to identify and work with records before 1860 and locating identifiable names among government records can raise the difficulty level. Even though it can be challenging, it can also be rewarding. Especially if you plan to volunteer for community projects like our Clearwater Colored Cemeteries program. We’ll provide research strategies to take you around the obstacles to help you find the records you seek. Presented by Taneya Koonce. Taneya Koonce works extensively in the genealogy community with leadership roles in the USGenWeb Project and the Afro-American Historical &amp; Genealogical Society (as National Treasurer and Nashville Chapter President). Through her Academy of Legacy Leaders Facebook community, Taneya facilitates education and inspiration for 2,500 family history enthusiasts. She is an active genealogy &amp; family history blogger and author. Genealogy has been her passion since 2005 especially in technology, historical newspaper research, digital photo &amp; file organization, and genetic genealogy all while keeping family history fun! Note: FREE and open to the public. This is the monthly general membership meeting with educational program. The first 15 minutes of this program will include the Society meeting. This hybrid meeting will be held in-person at the Largo Public Library, 120 Central Park Drive, Meeting Room/Jenkins B, Largo, FL 33771 AND online via Zoom. Registration is only required for Zoom attendees.
