Mission & Philanthropy

We are thrilled to continue our legacy of supporting the youth in our local community. Last year, we were able to award two college bound high school seniors with scholarships. This year, KEY is looking to award two scholarships in the amount of $1,000 to college bound high school seniors.

Kappa Epsilon Psi Military Sorority, Inc. is a sorority of more than 2,000 female retirees, veterans, and active-duty service members from all branches of the Armed Forces. Mentorship of future leaders is one of the three principles of our organization’s mission of Honor, Unite, and Mentor. One of the ways that the Augusta Xi Chapter of Kappa Epsilon Psi supports the mentorship of future leaders is by providing financial resources to help students pursue a college education.

The Augusta Xi chapter will be awarding two scholarships in the amount of $1000.00 each to college bound high school seniors who meet the criteria listed below.
