The Continental Societies, Inc., a public service organization, dedicated to the socio-economic and cultural welfare of under-privileged children and youth, was organized in 1956 and incorporated nationally in 1972.
The Greater Miami Chapter of Continental Societies, Inc. was installed into the Societies January 30, 1988, at the Radisson Mart Hotel under the sponsorship of the Atlanta, Georgia chapter. It became the 32nd chapter in the 32nd year of Continental Societies, Inc. to officially become a member of the national organization. The installing officers were Dr. Lois Harrison-Jones, then National President, who was superintendent of Richmond, Virginia Public Schools; Edna Calhoun, National Membership Chairperson and Jeanne Byrd, President of the Atlanta Chapter.
Through a five-point programmatic thrust, HEER – Health, Education, Employment, Recreation – plus Arts and Humanities, Continental women volunteer their time to work in schools, hospitals, and homes for youth as well as homes for mentally or emotionally challenged youth.
Continentals volunteer innovatively through tutoring, mentoring, after-school programs, apparel donations and Walk-a- thons. Mentoring programs are a major component of the Continental approach.

REAL MEN READ
YES INDEED - IT'S GOLDEN!
Introducing
REAL MEN READ
Real Men Read is a volunteer-driven program that brings male MENtors from the community into kindergarten classrooms to read five different books throughout the course of the school year.
The kindergarteners receive a book during each visit to build their own home libraries and share with their families. The intangible benefits are even greater. Since men tend to be seen as less involved in elementary education, spending time sharing books with a male role model allows all children to connect with the world of reading in a new and special way and encourages boys to see reading as something that guys enjoy too.
