Our Chapter

The Burlington Alumnae Chapter has served the areas of Alamance and Caswell County for over 35 years. Today, the chapter remains in the forefront by providing impactful programming and community-based initiatives based upon the Sorority's Five-Point Programmatic Thrust.

Chapter History

The Omicron Iota Chapter was active at Elon College (currently Elon University), in Burlington, but there was no support for the collegiate chapter. Seeing the need for the service of Delta in Burlington, a group of dedicated and determined other active Sorors from the community came together and contacted national headquarters to form an alumnae chapter in Burlington. On May 28, 1988 in a ceremony held at St. Matthews AME Church, 1136 Apple Street in Burlington NC, the South Atlantic Regional Director, Soror Thelma Pettus, installed 12 members and the Burlington Alumnae Chapter was chartered. The charter members are: 

  • Patsy Byrd - Xi Chapter, Spring 1975
  • Roslyn Crisp - Eta Kappa, Spring 1977
  • Gwendolyn Harrelson* - Rocky Mount Alumnae, Spring 1950
  • Marcia Isley - Beta Kappa, Spring 1970
  • Harlece Jeffries - Gamma Phi, Fall 1973
  • Grace Jones* - Alpha Rho, Fall 1945
  • Benita Kearney - Wilmington Delaware Alumnae, Spring 1985
  • Kim Mack - Omicron Iota, Fall 1984
  • Willa Price* - Alpha Rho, Spring 1948 
  • Sandra Reid - Omicron Iota, Spring 1983
  • Hazel Thompson - Greensboro Alumnae, Fall 1978
  • Marilyn Williams - Greensboro Alumnae, Spring 1983
