Society of 1918
Founded in 2018, on the occasion of the centennial celebration of the admission of women to William & Mary, the Society of 1918 is committed to growing the engagement, leadership and philanthropy of W&M women.
Our vision is to achieve a level of impact, influence and generosity commensurate with their majority representation in the alumni community.

"I joined the Society of 1918 to lend my voice to the empowerment of women’s initiatives at W&M. As an African-American woman, I want to be an example to other women of color by paving the way for generational engagement and representation in philanthropy. Philanthropy is about investing time, treasure and talent."
