We have set a goal to raise $21,250 by December 12th, 2026 to endow the June Barber Memorial Scholarship to a level that will allow more substantial annual awards for many years to come! We hope you will join us in this worthy endeavor!

WHY I GIVE
TONI MITCHUM, NU ZETA
I give because Chi Omega fosters strong-service minded leaders, and I was to support sisters who will continue making a positive difference in Chi Omega and their communities.
SHERRI ODELL, LAMBDA ZETA
My grandmother, Christin Hogin, was passionate about Chi Omega from her college days until the end of her life. She served the sorority in many roles - National Panhellenic representative, advisor, etc - and believed that Chi Omega was instrumental in developing so many strong, fierce young women. Both myself and my daughter have followed in her footsteps, living the Chi Omega mission and creed.
JOANIE BERGMAN, RHO KAPPA
The women of Chi Omega have supported me and been by my side as we have negotiated life together. I am proud to help support this group by making a donation to fund the June Barber Scholarship to help make a difference in the lives of other Chi Omega women in the years to come.
