In 1983 the Chapter was off and running with 15 members. One of the first community service projects was a Christmas Party for the children of the Frederick Douglas Head Start School in Littlerock, CA. Contributions were made to the Jackie Robinson Park Advisory Council. In addition, the Lancaster Alumnae Chapter held the first Easter Egg Program at Jackie Robinson Park. There were about 50 children at the program. In 2007, this program gave away goodies to about 500 children.
