Some #singleladies get stuff done.I admire Jane Addams in her efforts to improve the life of immigrants in Chicago.With a particular focus on education and recreation for women and girls.She founded Hull house , and while giving people skills they need to make it in The U.S. ,she held ethnic nights where people could gather to showcase dance and stories from their native countries.If you visit Chicago, there‘s a museum on S. Halsted. #aprella
