Kappa Chi Omega was founded in 1965 and cherished a strong history of sisterhood that was demonstrated through their service projects, fundraisers, and social events. In 1996, Kappa Chi Omega took bold action to become the first national sorority on campus, Chi Omega. The strength of Kappa Chi Omega has carried over into Chi Omega, enabling them to share common values, purpose, and lifelong friendships.
The Kappa Chi Omega Scholarship is awarded to deserving females with sophomore, junior, or senior standing based on financial need and merit, who are active members of a recognized sorority at Carthage.
Debbie (Erickson) Hartfield '80 and Carthage Trustee, Gina Madrigrano Friebus '76 were instrumental in establishing this scholarship and were joined by many of their sisters in the sorority to fully endow this fund. But, the generosity doesn't have to stop there!
This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to make a gift in honor of a fellow Kappa Chi Omega or Chi Omega sister and help us reach our goal of raising $1,500 to help continue the legacy of Kappa Chi Omega for generations to come!
