Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. -Gamma Beta Omega Chapter

The dream of establishing a graduate chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. in Wilson, NC had its origin in the mind of Soror Norma Darden during the late ‘30’s. However, this was very difficult since she had to have at least seven members for the establishment of a chapter. After many years of searching for eligible ladies, her task was completed. On February 18, 1940 Gamma Beta Omega became

a reality. Following the death of Soror Norma Darden, in 1987, Gamma Beta Omega purchased her home (which was named Gamma Beta Omega House) from her heirs. The house was later renamed The AKA Center for Community Services, and has most recently been named for one of our charter members and first member of our chapter (2007) to reach the status of Diamond Soror, Odelle Whitehead Barnes. Since its inception in February, 1940, Gamma Beta Omega continues to work with a broad range of service projects which promote and encourage social, economic, and political well-being throughout the Wilson and neighboring communities. Some programs and services offered include sponsoring forums and workshops on building self-esteem, informing teens on health issues, providing counseling on college choices and financial aid, providing canned goods, coats for the needy, scholarships to students and much more. Service to All Mankind will forever remain our focus.
