The Crescent City Chapter was chartered in 1984 and we are proud of our rich history of providing transformational programming to our community. For more than 37 years, the Crescent City (LA) chapter members have engaged in over XX,000 hours serving and working with our national, area, and local partners to provide transformative and meaningful service to citizens in the greater New Orleans Area

Our commitment to sustaining this legacy of service is reflected in five facets:

• Services to Youth – undertaking the challenges faced by African-American youth
• International Trends & Services – helping to improve the lives and livelihood of the global community
• The Arts – supporting and promoting the performing and visual arts
• Health & Human Services – encouraging good health and educating the public while helping to eliminate health disparities in minority communities.

As we continue to build upon the strong foundation established in the New Orleans community more than 37 years ago, our commitment to delivering quality programs through our five (5) facets remains our highest priority!
