Welcome Message from the President

Greetings!

As President of the Wilberforce University Cincinnati Alumni Chapter, I am honored to welcome our alumni, supporters, and future graduates to our community. Rooted in our enduring mantra, Suo Marte - "By one's own toil, effort, courage" - we remain committed to uplifting one another and advancing the legacy of our beloved university.

Our chapter stands as a vibrant network of leaders, mentors, and advocates dedicated to strengthening connections and creating opportunities. Through mentorship, community engagement, and scholarship initiatives, we actively support student success while preserving the values instilled in us at Wilberforce University. Each effort reflects the resilience, excellence, and pride that define the Wilberforce spirit. 

Whether you are reconnecting as an alum, partnering as a supporter, or preparing to join the Cincinnati chapter as a future graduate, we invite you to be part of this shared journey. Together, we can inspire, empower, and make a lasting impact - continuing the work of those who paved the way before us. 

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our mission. 

Suo Marte, 

De-Ajura Mathenia, 97'
