Bethune Circles hosted fundraising events to support Dr. Mary Jane McLeod Bethune and her school, Bethune-Cookman College (B-CC). Lee's wife was one of Dr. Bethune's closest friend and also a member of B-CC's Women's Advisory Board. The Circle was led by Lee and several female members of the Ebenezer Methodist Church.
