Chapter President’s Message
Hello,
It is my goal during my tenure as president that the Oxford Chapter stay dedicated to the involvement of the Granville County community. We will continue to look for opportunities to volunteer and bring needed and necessary programs to support our senior citizens, children, homelessness and those that are in need of resources to help them survive. To whom much is given, much is required. We are a blessed group of educated women who are dedicated, supportive and ready to work wherever we are needed, and we won’t stop until the community is better for all!
Best Regards,
Kimberley Jones-Scott
Oxford Chapter President
