Brooklyn court attorney, local sorority chapter bring Brooklyn teens on college tour
Members of the bench are known for their philanthropy and good deeds. But sometimes, the positive work of their staffs is overlooked. While their work is conducted away from the public eye, court staff and personnel are very engaged in their communities and bettering the opportunities for others.
Monique Holaman, a Kings County Supreme Court senior court attorney, is one of these individuals.
A participant in the Delta Rho Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Holaman has always viewed higher education as an augur of success. “The college experience should be afforded to everyone, regardless of background,” Holaman told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
Holaman and her chapter members have organized a college tour for Brooklyn high school students. The purpose of the college tour is to give high school students the opportunity to visit historically black colleges and universities from Maryland to Georgia.
