Our Chapter
The Oakland Chapter was founded in 2000 by passionate and dedicated women driven by a simple mission: service. We proudly build upon the legacy of our founders and charter members, several of whom remain active today.
Through long-standing partnerships with local organizations, we work directly with families to identify their needs and deliver meaningful support.
For over 20 years, our annual “Party with a Purpose” fundraiser has spread Christmas cheer to hundreds of deserving families, making our chapter an anchor in the Oakland community.
