President’s Message

Greetings and welcome to the official website of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, Zeta Xi Omega Chapter!

I am delighted that you have taken the time to visit our digital home. Zeta Xi Omega Chapter proudly serves Augusta, Georgia, and the surrounding CSRA as a member of the Significant South Atlantic Region. Our chapter was chartered on March 13, 1955, by sixteen visionary, college-trained women who were ready to raise the standard for service, leadership, and sisterhood—and that legacy continues to guide us today.

With a membership of more than 300 dedicated women, Zeta Xi Omega Chapter works tirelessly to implement the 2022–2026 International Program under the theme “Soaring to Greater Heights of Service and Sisterhood.” Our work is grounded in Strengthen Our Sisterhood, our Foundation Initiative, which fortifies the bonds that sustain and support our collective mission of service.

Our five Program Initiatives extend that mission into meaningful action:

Empower Our Families, through signature programs such as the Childhood Hunger Initiative Power Pack (CHIPP) and Youth Leadership Institute (YLI)
Build Our Economic Wealth
Enhance Our Environment
Advocate for Social Justice
Uplift Our Community

Each initiative reflects our unwavering commitment to serving all mankind and meeting the evolving needs of our community with intention, compassion, and excellence.

It is truly an honor to serve as President of such a dynamic and accomplished chapter during a time when leadership, advocacy, and service matter more than ever. Zeta Xi Omega Chapter stands ready to answer the call, to partner with our community, and to make a lasting impact throughout the CSRA.

I invite you to explore our website often to learn more about our history, leadership, programs, upcoming events, and service initiatives. Your continued support and interest are deeply appreciated.

Thank you for visiting.
Welcome—and we look forward to connecting with you.

With Purpose and Pride,
LaTaji S. Hopgood, President
Zeta Xi Omega Chapter
