President's Greeting


A Message from the President

It is my pleasure to bring greetings on behalf of the 380 members of Omicron Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® located in Birmingham, Alabama. Omicron Omega Chapter was chartered on October 24, 1924, making it the first graduate chapter chartered in Alabama and the oldest graduate chapter in the South Eastern Region. Our Chapter is the home of the 15th South Eastern Regional Director, Soror Savannah Crews Jones, and the extensive list of members who have served and are serving on the regional and international levels.

For over 97 years, Omicron Omega has served the local community and surrounding metropolis, implementing award- winning programs and events thus enriching our heritage and leadership. As an award-winning Chapter, our focus has been on designing programs and events that serve our constituents.

It is truly an honor and a privilege to serve as the Chapter’s 38th President to an esteemed group of women within this illustrious organization. It is also an honor to support the Chapter’s foundation, the Cultural and Educational Advancement Foundation(CEAF).

Our membership represents a wide array of professional women of high scholastic achievement, diverse occupations, skills, interests, generations, and backgrounds. Our mission is to cultivate and encourage high scholastic and ethical standards, to promote unity and friendship among college women, to study and help alleviate problems concerning girls and women in order to improve their social stature, to maintain a progressive interest in college life, and to be of “Service to All Mankind”.

We continue to foster the mission of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® through our interaction with our three undergraduate chapters: Gamma Pi Chapter (Miles College), Iota Phi Chapter (University of Alabama at Birmingham), and Omicron Mu Chapter (Samford University).

In addition to focusing on the International Program Targets of our International President, Dr. Glenda Glover, “Exemplifying Excellence Through Sustainable Service,” the Chapter will continue to Elevate and Expand our impact in the community.

We are thrilled that you have taken the opportunity to visit Omicron Omega website and learn about our Chapter and programs. We invite you to continue to connect with us through all our social media channels. Sincerely, A. Pauline Parker President of Omicron Omega Chapter
