A Celebration of Life: Aisha Washington

Back to All Events
Aisha Washington looks confidently ahead, to the right

We have lost a colleague, a leader, and a friend. Aisha Washington was a pillar of our community for 17 years, always pushing us to the best that we could be, always accepting any challenge, always sharing selflessly with all of us her time, passion and compassion. 

Aisha was a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta, a world traveller and a woman of deep faith. She was dedicated to issues related to the impact of public policy on Black people and Black people on public policy, anchored programs such as the Academy for Excellence in Local Governance and the Executive Elected Leadership Program, and always came forward with new ideas, always volunteering to take them forward.

We invite the community to come together to remember and honor Aisha.

The memorial service will be livestreamed on YouTube. Join via livestream.
