Founded in 1943 as the Washington, DC Spelman Club, the Washington DC Metro Chapter pre-dates the national alumnae association. We are a non-profit organization of the NAASC serving Washington, DC and several of the surrounding DC, Maryland and Virginia cities. Our organization seeks to:
- Support the college and its students financially through annual scholarship awards and an annual gift to the college.
- Uplift the Washington DC Metro community through service projects and activities.
- Engage in recruitment on behalf of the college while sharing our experiences with potential students. Chapter members participate in college recruitment fairs to share their Spelman experience with potential students.
- Promote leadership, growth and development opportunities for our membership.
- Provide networking and social engagement for members locally, regionally and nationally within the Association and with other Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
Our signature event is The Loving Me Girls Conference (LMGC) established in March of 2010. Additional activities include the DC HBCU Alliance 5k Run/Walk, DMV Founders Day Celebration and Christmas Social. Each year an alumna who has demonstrated distinguished service to the chapter is awarded the Mae Clowney Wilson Alumna of the Year Award.
