Greetings!
As we begin the second year of this biennium, I remain honored to serve as President of the
Richmond Alumnae Chapter alongside 600 dynamic, service-minded members. Since 1942,
the Richmond Alumnae Chapter has proudly carried out the vision of our 22 Founders and
the courageous women who established our chapter more than 83 years ago. Together, we
continue to uphold a legacy of sisterhood, scholarship, service, and social action.
Rooted in our Five-Point Programmatic Thrust—Economic Development, Educational
Development, International Awareness and Involvement, Physical and Mental Health, and
Political Awareness and Involvement—we remain focused on delivering programs that
uplift and strengthen our communities. Our chapter theme, “DIG in for DELTA—Develop,
Inspire, and Grow”; continues to guide our work as we deepen our commitment to
national initiatives and regional goals. We also remain aligned with our South Atlantic
Region’s guiding principle: WE ARE BETTER TOGETHER—Together in Sisterhood,
Leadership, and Service.
As we continue to build on our foundation, we invite you to join us in supporting our public
service programs, ongoing scholarship initiatives, and community partnerships that help
create meaningful and lasting change.
Thank you for visiting our website. Stay connected with us on Facebook and Instagram to
learn more about how we are making an impact in the Richmond Metropolitan area…and
how you can support us in doing so.

Yours in Service,

Bernita A. Williams, President
