23 young women in the senior class of the Cypress Gems Chapter of National Charity League, Inc. were recognized for their outstanding philanthropic
service. At a formal event held at the Norris Conference Center on February 21, 2021, the Cypress Gems graduating class of 2021 were presented by
their families and honored for their contributions to their chapter and their community.

National Charity League is a mother-daughter service organization committed to fostering the mother-daughter relationship through community
service, leadership development and cultural experiences. Alongside their mothers, the 2021 class performed over 4,715.75 hours of community
service. Their work has benefitted multiple non-profit organizations such as Avanti Senior Living, Boys and Girls Country, Cy-Fair Educational Foundation,
Cy-Hope, Cypress Lucky Mutts, Giving Gown, Habitat for Humanity, Houston Food Bank, Memorial Hermann Cypress, Mercer Botanic Gardens, Reach
Unlimited, Santa Maria Hostel, Teen Life Center and Texas Wildlife Rehabilitation Coalition. The Cypress Gems chapter formed in 2014 and is comprised
of girls attending Cypress Fairbanks, Cypress Ranch, Cypress Woods and Bridgeland High Schools.

Ashlee Ivy, Cypress Gems Chapter President stated, “It has been a joy to watch the senior class fully embrace the core values of NCL. They are an
impressive group of young ladies who lead by example. Our community has benefited greatly from their leadership and volunteer efforts. We wish
them much success in the future.”
